Period upto 7-8 days is normal and upto 80ml is normal. If it doesnt stop after 8 days or the quantity of blood loss is higher or if the persistent periods is causing you intense weakness...contact or connect to get the necessary guidance for hormonal evaluation and control of blood loss.

If your duration of menstruation is normally 4-5 days,you should not worry. Its normal.
But if your periods were less and now your having excessive bleeding, please contact for online consultation. Otherwise spotting should stop in a day or two

Normal menstrual cycle can even last up to 7 days. So wait for 2 or 3 days. If spotting persists then some basic investigations will be done Anaemia Hypo or hyperthyroidism or some other hormonal disturbances can cause hypomenorrhoea or irregular periods
