menstruation/period

I have my period and it has been on for now 13 days, which it usually stays on 5days. I started a full body cleanser on my 5th day, which cleanser is for bladder, heart, respiratory, skin, blood, colon etc.. Do you think thats why my period staying on longer than usual?

Did your period come on time?  
Any possibility that you may have been pregnant?
Is your period starting to lessen at all?  If not, then I suggest you see your doctor.  Although periods can vary, it is not normal to have a bleed for 13 days.

Was this a heavy period, or tapering off?
Your hormones may be out of balance or you may be anaemic.  A doctor can do a blood test to check for a hormone imbalance and for anaemia.

Keep an eye on things and keep a menstrual cycle chart.  

Best wishes.

I would say it could be a possibility.

Is it heavy flow or light?

Watch for the next one to see what happens. If it continues to happen I would talk to your doctor about it but I don't think its anything to worry about..Well unless its still heavy.
