It's definitely gotten shorter as I've gotten older...I swear it used to be like 5 heavy days when I was a teenager.

Covered a full 7-8 days, depending on how long the last spotting took to go away. Always had cramps, birth control lessened them to a faint ache that lasted much less time. Switched to a menstrual cup 3 years ago. No more cramps. Period is now a spot 2-3 days before actual start, then starts with heavy bleeding for a couple days, and a couple days of lighter flow. Then it stops, but the last half day might be spotting. So, 4-5 days of bleeding, but still 7-8 if you count the pre-herald spot.
