How long is too for your period to last?

Typically, a menstrual period lasts between 2 and 7 days. If your period lasts longer than 7 days, it is considered to be prolonged or abnormal and should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. Prolonged menstrual bleeding can be caused by various underlying medical conditions, such as hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or certain medications. It is important to seek medical consultation if you have prolonged menstrual bleeding to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
