Answer
The length of a cycle is usually 3-5 days, lasting from 2-7 days is also acceptable. Menstruation beyond 7-10 days is also called normal if the amount of menstrual bleeding is very small. Changes in the length of time your period ends can be a side effect of birth control pills. Depending on the type of birth control pill will have different effects. If your menstrual bleeding is still heavy by day 7 you should see your doctor.
