This may be a stupid question, but it's one I've been wondering for a while and I thought who better to ask than the Bees!

How is it that some people can have light AFs and some heavy? Mine are really really light now, they were always light but now more so than ever, like last period I used a panty liner one day and it wasn't soaked, the other 2 days I had a little bit of spotting in my panties.....and that was it!

So how can some people have heavy flow and some light? Does it mean that some people have thin lining and other think? In my googling it would appear that this is not the case...but then where does all the blood from the lining go for those that have really light periods? Is it absorbed somehow?

Please help me understand this mystery!

Ps. I asked my gynocologist about the light periods as we are just beginning to investigate why we are having trouble getting ku and she said as long as my periods are regular (and they are) and that I'm ovulating (and I am) that there is nothing to be concerned about.
