    How old are you? It's possible your periods are changing due to age and hormones.

    Have your activities or stress levels changed? How about diet and exercise? Weight loss or weight gain?

    Are you taking any birth control?

    Typically the first sign of pregnancy is a missing period.

    No and I'm just asking why my period became 3 days period instead of 5 days

    It could be due to pregnancy since you aren't doing anything to prevent it, but that is remote.

    I suggest you test using first morning urine to be sure.
