Do you mean a period or just bleeding? The bleeding will vary. Some women only bleed for a couple days, but some much longer. Sometimes it's a lot and other times just spotting. It really depends on you. When you actually get your period, it's normal for it to be longer than usual, but exactly how long will vary. Sorry not the best answer! We're all just different.

Its not really a period after. You bleed for about a week then lightly for another 3 weeks or more. After that you can get your period, when will depend when you ovulate again, I think its usually a month later or a few weeks.
