I've always had my periods lasting for five days, but this month, it's been continuing on for the eighth day now. It's not very heavy, but I'm still getting a bit of cramps. Is this hormonal?

How old are you? Could be menopause starting?

I shouldn't be! I'm 26...

There are lots of things that cause changes in periods. Have you been stressed out? Stress is a common cause for changes in menstrual cycles.
