    Heavy/Light
    After my 3rd baby my periods were very heavy. Like changing my pads and tampons every hour and this month its so light I don't even have a tampon in. Should I be concerned? All my life my periods have been pretty regular.

    Have you been doing a lot of physical activity since the light periods started? A lot of athletes get very light ones because they are physically active.

    Worried ?

    How old are you, sorry to ask but it can be a issue?
    How is your over all health?
    Stress, worry, hold old is the youngest child ?
    Are you sexually active ?

    But women may miss a period, have more or less pain, heavy or light, they can vary greatly from time to time.

    When was your last exam

    I am 26 and a mother of 3. Youngest being almost 9 months. I nursed him until 5 months so I've only had 5 periods since then. They were extremely heavy.. I have never been that heavy in my life tampon and pad every hour.. Then this period was extremely light. Like fulled maybe one tampon in 3 days and then it stopped for 4 days then it came back yesterday and now it was stopped again. No cramping until today though. I am having a lot of anxiety though. That's really the only thing I can think of that has changed this past month.
    I haven't had an exam for a while now. I am due for one.
