The fertilized egg then implants into the uterine wall around days 22 to 26 of your cycle. If your body follows a 28-day menstrual cycle, you won't get your period until after day 28. So, if you're bleeding earlier and lighter than normal, there's a good chance it's implantation bleeding, not your period.

What does it mean if your period is early?

What does an early period mean? Getting your period early usually means your hormones are a slightly off-balance. Fluctuations in your hormones from month to month are common and are typically nothing to worry about, especially if you've only just started menstruating.

How many days early period is normal?

Menstrual flow might occur every 21 to 35 days and last two to seven days. For the first few years after menstruation begins, long cycles are common. However, menstrual cycles tend to shorten and become more regular as you age.

Is it normal to get your period 2 weeks early?

A menstrual cycle can last anywhere between 21 and 35 days. Even women with the most regular and consistent periods can get them two weeks earlier than expected. There are plenty of reasons for bleeding, but they don't have to be indicators that there's something wrong.

Why am I bleeding 2 weeks after my last period?

This is because your hormone levels drop. It is also called breakthrough bleeding, and usually happens about 2 weeks after your last period. Breakthrough bleeding should stop after 1 or 2 months. Your periods will usually become more regular within 6 months.

Why does my period date change every month?

As the cycle moves forward, one hormone often triggers the next, which then triggers the next, moving the cycle through its different phases. Having more or less of certain hormones will create changes in the pace and timing of the cycle. If one hormone doesn't “pass the baton,” things can slow down or stop altogether.
