Is it normal for my period to be heavy and then change to being light?

Ever since I started my period it's been heavy. I've always had to carry a lot of pads and change them all the time. I would be so stressed out, worrying if it will go through my pants. But recently my period will be lighter. I have so many left over pads to carry. Before they would be all used up. So is it normal for this to happen? Is my period just changing?

    Mine only last for 3 days, and only the first day is heavy, so I would assume. I'm not even miserable during mine... but surprisingly hyper. A period is different for everyone. So I would say this is normal.

    Its hard to predict how your period will end up being like. Being overly stressed can cause irregular bleeding. It could also change over the course of time. So if you have been stressing just try to relax, especially around the time of your next period, and see if it returns its original pattern. If you are very conserned about it you could see a counselor of gynecologist about it. Hope this helps you out!
