    Yes because your going to lose so much Iron and may become anemic then your going to feel really tired all the time and generally like rubbish.

    Get checked at your Dr.

    I don't think it's bad, but it's definitely not fun. Go see a gynecologist. They can talk it over with you and may want to prescribe birth control pills to help regulate you. I used to have my period for about 9 days, went on the pill and only had it for about 4 or 5, now I'm off the pill and i still usually don't have it for longer than 5 days.

    good luck!

    No it's not bad. My friend has had many periods up to a month...the doctors disnt tell her anything about it being bad (mind you her periods were terrible( she was my best friend so i knew most things about her).....every girl is different when it comes to periods, your body can change and irregularities happen.

    If you are worried wont hurt to consult ur doctor, even call them and ask if u should be concerned ( i have done this, saves going in and paying for a consult).

    I dont think thats bad. Sometimes my periods last 12 days, if you are bleeding really heavily and it happens every month then you might need to go on the pill, it makes your period heaps better. Drink lots of water to keep you hydrated too.
