After the birth of my second baby, I have my period twice a month.  Whereas before any of my pregnancies, it used to be 24 days which is considered normal.  I'd like to know what might be wrong?  I've gone to my doc and I'll be going through some blood tests.  But I'd like to know if anyone is experiencing or has experienced sth similar.  What can you tell me about this?

similar problem.  the best solution is birth control, the pill form.  your hormones are just out of whack, that's all.

Lots of women skip periods this way -- most of my friends have done it when they've first gotten married so they have seven uninterrupted weeks after the wedding!!  \n\nAs to your other questions -- Sometimes.  No.  Yes.  Sometimes (theoretically, how you act on birth control is how you'll be while pregnant).

boy do I have a story for you!  I once had my period for 23 day straight.  I first went to my normal doctor and she did absolutely nothing.  No tests were run or anything.   I then went to the gyno hoping for an answer.  He preceeded to tell me that it was because I was fat and that the fat cells give off more estrogen and that can prolong your period.  I went home crying still not knowing exactly what to do about the problem.

It could be a variety of reasons, but it is not normal and you definately want to contact your doctor.\n\nI know when I first became pregnant I would have menstrual cramps daily - which is strange. If you have been having unprotected sex - you may want to look into that. \n\nIt could also be your body adjusting to not being on birth control anymore.\n\nCall your doctor - better to be safe than sorry.

Some periods can go on 9 to 11 days.  It is perfectly normal.  But when was the last time you had it (IUD)checked?  That might make a difference.  But otherwise I wouldn't be alarmed.

well... i wouldn't rule it out completely cuz our uteri are strange and complex (and sometimes just downright carazzzy) things.  it is, however, unlikely.  there is actually a period of only two or three days when your uterus is primed for baby making, this happens a couple days before your period (the shedding of all those baby-making materials).  are you having sex regularly (cuz sometimes the actual act of having sex after a while could be such a shock to your lonely little uterus that it switches things up on you).  i had really, really, irregular periods from the time i started (11?) until the time i started having sex (almost 21).  me having sex straightened out my cycle and they have been pretty regular since.  of course, the safest bet is to take a pregnancy test and find out, but have a little relief in knowing that you are PROBABLY in the clear.  also, it goes without saying that if you do not want babies you need to be using not only birth control, but a condom as well (two types of contraception are always better than one being that none is 100% fool proof)

Irregular periods are just irregular periods. Are you asking if you are pregnant? Either way-SEE A DOCTOR!!!

Very likely, it is perfectly normal. There is a lot of variation in how often women have their periods, the average, however,  is about 28 days.\nBut you should still visit a gynecologist as he may order some simple blood tests (hormone levels) and an ultrasound (totally painless 5 min test) just to make very sure.

Some of these symptoms can be a side effect of the pill.  Not only that, but your body is still hormonal hell after having your baby.  I would seriously suggest that you talk to your doctor.  As far as when you should get your next period,  you would go by the date of  regular period cycle you had -- not the 1-niter.  But seriously, talk to your doctor if you continue to feel this crappy.

all girls cycles are different i bleed alot more on than off most are as long as 2-3 months with only 4 days stopped its normal for some to not bleed at all or very light just to be on safe side pop to doctors it may be nothing but might put your mind at ease

PMS signs and early pregnancy signs closely mimic each other. You might be pregnant...or you might just be having bad pms. Should you still not have your period by the end of the week..I would suggest going to your docror for a pregnancy blood test

I would go every 6 weeks or so.  I have never had an exact number of days.  Sometimes, I would go 40 days, then 19, and then 30, and that sequence repeated twice.  Anyways, I've never heard of anyone going every 5 months or so, unless they were stressed, underweight, or athletic.  If you're none of the above, I'd go to the OBGYN just to get checked out because it's possible there might be something wrong.

Theres not a straight answer for this.  Most likely you are not pregnant.  However, there have been cases where girls still get their periods when they are pregnant.  You should maybe wait a week and take a test if you are concerned.

When I was younger and in my twenties my perods were the same. I would bleed 2 days tops, not very heavy and no cramps to speak of...be greatful....we are the lucky ones. \nMy doctor told me it had to do with hormones and body type and not to worry about it. He told me if I were bleeding heavily then to contact him. He told me I just got lucky.

your period can be irregular for a while when you first start getting it i got mine when i was 11 but it wasn't completely regular until i was almost 15 even now,at 17, i'm going on birthcontrol to help regulate it more b/c i have a short cycle (come almost a week early every time) diet and exercise can have an effect on it too. Talk to you docter about it next time you go in but know that it is perfectly normal

My periods were late by 15 days last month but I am not pregnant. Generally my cycle is pretty regular. The odds of three pregnancy tests being wrong are slim, but there is a minuscule chance.

Dont listen to vish or slick_chique. It is possible.  I had my period during the first 2 months I was pregnant. Both times I was pregnant actually. Your best bet would be to take a pregnancy test, or go to the doc to find out for sure.
