Answer 2

Maybe, the average period lasts for 7 days and the first 3 days are the heavy ones. Were your other periods this heavy? If not you should go to the doctors

Answer 3

I would talk to your doctor about getting on birth control. Heavy periods really suck and if they always last 7 days its not too good for your body. I was borderline anemic from having heavy periods which means my body didn't have enough iron. Birth control can lighten the bleeding and make you have shorter periods and can help with acne too.

Answer 4

yes. your period fluctuates a lot, especially if you havent had too many of them. Eventually it will become a little better and pretty much the same every time so youy will know what to expect. Make sure you drink lots of water. That helps a little so it isnt so heavy.If it continues to be really heavy for so many days i would mention it to your doctor to see what they would reccomend.

Answer 5

yeah it's fine.perfectly normal.but you dont want it too keep going for about maybe 5 days more.because if you just started its not healthy..it should get heavier by the more periods you will have..like each period will get heavier.but not all the time....so yes right now its fine:)

Answer 6

yes, especially when you've just started having period since your hormones will be crazy for a bit. Although, now that you've started having periods, you should see a GYN.
