YOGYKARTA - The menstrual cycle is an important part of the health of women's reproduction. Generally, menstruation lasts between 3 and 7 days with an average of 5 days. However, sometimes women experience shorter menstruation, which only lasts 3 days. Many are confused whether menstruation is only 3 days old or a sign of pregnancy? This article will regulate this, including aspects of short menstruation triggers and how to distinguish it from the initial signs of pregnancy.
Haid Short: Reasonable Or Not?
Haid, which lasts for 3 days, does not always show any health problems. The menstrual cycle of each woman is different, and some women naturally have a shorter menstrual period. However, sudden changes to menstrual patterns, a kind of duration shorter than usual, can be a sign that there is a hormonal turnover or certain circumstances that affect the body.
Differences In Haid And Implantation Bleeding

This bleeding occurs when an egg that has been seeded adheres to the uterine wall, generally about 6 12 days after ovulation. The following is the main difference between menstrual and implantation bleeding:
If your menstruation lasts only 3 days and is lighter than generally, there is a possibility it is an implantation hemorrhage, especially if you are intimately active without contraception. However, short menstruation can also be caused by other aspects, such as:
1. Stress
Physical or emotional stress can affect hormone levels in the body, so that menstrual cycles are shorter or even late.
2. Weight Change
Extreme weight shrinkage or significant weight gain can affect the duration of menstruation.
3. Unbalanced Hormones
Hormonic imbalance, such as low levels of progesteron, can cause shorter or irregular menstruation.
4. Contraception Usage
Some methods of hormonal contraception, such as KB capsules or hormonal IUD, can cause menstruation to be shorter or lighter.
5. Certain Medical Conditions
The condition of a type of polyxycistic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid disorders can also affect the menstrual cycle.
