what can cause a 30 day menstral period?

it depends.  if you have missed a cycle here and there then the one(s) you missed have caused endometrial linning to thicken. so for example, if you missed two periods and then have one on the third month, your period may be heavier because you have three layers built up and sometimes it sheds all at once causing a really heavy period to last more than 2 weeks or sometimes it sheds in peices causing clots.  you may need to see your gyno they may give you the pill to help stop it or they may give you provera, which is like a chemical DNC that will help clean you out and if that does not stop the bleeding you may be looking at having a surgical DNC. if it last for more than 30 days you need to be seen because your CBC count may be low.(Complete blood count) this can be dangerous. you may feel faint, dizzy, tired, and sometimes you can pass out. this happened to me a few years ago, I bleed for 3 months. I passed out and ended in emergency having a DNC. you can also develop anemia and low iron.

Are you stressed? My ex girlfriend had the same upto 20 days and then went normal and her doctor put it to stress. Just thought I would tell you

Do you exercise a lot and/or strenuously?  have you been dieting?  If a woman doesn't have a reasonable percentage of body fat, her periods will stop.  You might also have your thyroid checked.  I had the opposite problem -- a period for 72 days, and it turned out I had Thyroid disease.\n\nNo matter what the reason, you should probably have a check-up.  Something's not right...\n\nGood luck!

Some of the common reasons for women to have irregular periods [excluding menapause, pregnancy, miscarrage, birth control etc.] would be a sudden drop or gain in wieght or sudden increase in physical activity.  If none of these apply to you, you may need to contact your doctor.  Hope all is well.  Good Luck!

well hun as above have said...ur period is at intervals of 28 days...normally they come on the (or around) same date each month...to be irregular means the dates get changed and u get them later or earlier than ur normal date.... if this happens its sometimes due to change in diet, stress, weight loss, weight gain, all these reasons are enough to be looked at by ur gp, some women bleed for the normal 5 days or so but as past experiences with myself show...ive had mine for up to 2 weeks, for which i seen gp wisely, and sometimes i dont get mine every month....sometimes twice in a month....is all up to ur own body clock hun and no 2 women ever have same pattern....if u have any concern pls see ur gp and remember we get periods for a reason....never ignore the signs of problems or when it comes time to have children u might have found the problems get worse....the pill or implant can help regulate ur periods so ask ur gp... hope this has helped... tc... : )

One of the most common causes of menorrhagia (or hypermenorrhea)--heavy menstrual bleeding and/or prolonged menstrual bleeding-- is an imbalance between the hormones estrogen and progesterone.\n\nIf you have seen a doctor, your doctor should have one: diagnosed you with menorrhagia after ruling out any other possible causes (other menstrual disorders, medical conditions or the use of medications) and two: should have started you on treatment to correct a hormonal imbalance if that was indeed the culprit.\n\nMy mother had this problem last year, but suffered from excessive menstrual bleeding (to the point she was severely anemic) and prolonged menstrual bleeding (lasting several weeks out of the month, stopping for a few days, then starting back up again). Her doctor said it was due to a hormonal imbalance, and he performed a D&C and then put her on iron supplements and progesterone.

You need to see a gynocologist.  Your march period was way too long. You are losing too much blood.

I know in some women, like my sister in law, BC causes blood clots in their legs.  Also if you smoke, this risk and the risk of heart problems is greatly increased.  I was on the patch (am currently trying for #2) and had no adverse reactions, no mood swings and I actually has lighter periods that lasted for less time and less cramping.

boy do I have a story for you!  I once had my period for 23 day straight.  I first went to my normal doctor and she did absolutely nothing.  No tests were run or anything.   I then went to the gyno hoping for an answer.  He preceeded to tell me that it was because I was fat and that the fat cells give off more estrogen and that can prolong your period.  I went home crying still not knowing exactly what to do about the problem.

yes, it can cause. Usually Underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) cause decrease in heavy days and flows. and increase the number of days in a menstural cycle. even can miss a menstural period. To become heavier of your menstural cycle, can occure it you missed one or two periods. or you having long menstural cycle in hypothyroidism state.

OVUALTION  I feel that same pain during the middle of my cycle  It is in the lower quadrant it goes away after 2 days.  If that is the case.  No caffeine c=would nto cause that.  It can however increase tender breasts and cause lumps in your breasts from an overload of it.  It can also cause headaches tackycardia ( increased heart rate) dehydration.  good luck in finding what could be wrong with you

Some medications, stress, and other things can mess up your cycle. You could be iron deficient and have a low blood count.

A period or Menses is the shedding of the uterine lining.  Where an egg had it been fertalized during the month would have attatched itself. This "normally" happens every 28 days however some women have longer or shorter cycles.  Bleeding will occur for 3-8 days and is completely normal. The female is free to do anything she wishes during this time, swimming, excersize, sex.  As long as she feels up to it, there are no boundries.

I actually got my periods when i was 11 and they lasted for 7 days to this day (im now 27).  For the first 3-4 days it was quite heavy and then it became lighter every day after that until it ended roughly on the 7th day.\n\nI did go on the pill for uterus problems a few years ago and it seemed to reduce it down to 3-4 days which helped a fair bit.\n\nAs for whether or not its normal, i asked the same thing of my doctor.  Especially seeing i had endometriosis.  He told me that for every woman it is different and sometimes regardless of uterus health a woman can bleed for 7 days.  My own sister who is perfectly healthy also gets hers for the same amount of time.\n\nAs for your periods not coming on every month, it does mean there could be something to be looked into.  Go to your doctor and get it checked out.  Everything might be fine, or your body could just be getting over the stress of the accident.  Stress can make them become irratic.\n\nHope everything goes well, good luck.

I've never had that happen.  Usually my period doesn't start until Thursday of my patch free week.
