HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The menstrual cycle can vary from one person to the next so it is possible that the cycle can normally last only 3 days in some persons.
If your cycle is normally longer then it is possible that the reduced flow may be due to : (1) side effect of medication- eg oral contraceptives
(2)excess physical activity
(3)physical or emotional illness
If you are concerned then you need to consider visiting your doctor for an assessment.
I hope this helps
