Concerned about AF getting lighter
I am wondering if I should be concerned.... I have noticed my periods have been getting lighter and lighter in the past year. I used to have a 5 day period of bleeding and 2-3 days of spotting but now my bleeding only lasts 2 days and about 3-4 days of spotting (brown stuff) Should I be concerned??? What does this mean?
Whew! Thank you so much for your responses! I was really worried and thinking a lighter period must mean i am getting less and less fertile! I am very happy to hear that your Dr. said it is normal. So if it doesnt affect my TTC then it's actually kind of nice and I will enjoy my shorter periods instead of worrying about it! Thanks ladies!

I agree - mine have been all over the place - and especially with the TTC hormones it is usually lighter.
It's normal! Mine is shorter and less heavy now too. I asked my doctor about it, and he said it's normal for your period to change through the years, and that a short period does not have any affect of conceiving. So, you should be fine!
