Period talk: Questions and advice
in Women's Health ·
My period usually drags on for at least 7 or 8 days. This month, things started out normally, but then after just two days, the flow tapered off and completely cut out by day 5. It doesn't seem like a massive shift, but it’s never happened before. I’m wondering if there could be any connection to tampons? I use them occasionally, but this time I was using them constantly—except during the night. Has anyone else dealt with something like this? I see so many women online linking these kinds of shifts to pregnancy, so I’m feeling a bit paranoid 😁 even though my boyfriend and I always use condoms and haven't had any issues with them 🙄
