How do I know when I'm done with my period?

Soso answered

Okay so knowing your period is ending is pretty easy, you'll literally just have way less blood or even no blood at all when you wipe. Sometimes it kinda tapers off, like it gets lighter and lighter over a day or two, and then it's just gone.

Your period usually lasts like 3 to 7 days, but everyone is a little different. If one ever keeps going for more than 7 days, tell a grown-up you trust so a doctor can check. The first few days are usually the heaviest, and then it gets lighter towards the end. So when you notice your flow is super light, or it's just a little bit of spotting, that's a good sign it's almost over.

And then one day you'll go to the bathroom and there will be nothing! That's how you know you're officially done. You can totally track this in the Soso app, because logging your flow each day helps you see what's normal for your body, and then you'll just know when things are wrapping up. You could also take the how close is my first period? quiz if you're still early in your journey and wondering about what's next!
