PERIOD & Anorexia
I'm 20 years old and my periods are normally VERY regular. I have a lighter period for the entire 5-6 days, but this last time it has been extremely light and a few days with no bleeding..but now it is back and this would be the 9th day. It is so light, but it won't completely stop. I've recently lost quite a bit of weight for my size. I was around 95/96 and dropped down to 91 in two weeks..could this be why my body is just reacting weird? I have anorexia and have been struggling alot with eating and weight and food..so could that also have something to do with it? Please help me! i'm getting worried!!!

You should report to a gynecologist for this problem. If there is a vaginal infection, then that can possibly be responsible for it.
