Worry not the least. Roughly about 1-2 of 10 girls have this problem of irregular periods. \n\nAnd of these girls too, in about 90% of them, this problem will get corrected automatically once they get married and start having sex (regularly atleast for a few weeks after marriage). \n\nYou will need to get concerned only if this problem persists even after marriage.\n\nSo, atleast till then, don't spoil ur natural rhythm with pills and all. Human body is best, if not meddled with. It can correct itself in most of the cases.

You might have something called PCOS.  That's cysts in your ovaries.  Usually that causes your periods to not be normal, but the hair and infertility are symptoms.\nYou should see your gynocologist and suggest getting tested for this.  If you have PCOS, treatment might help you get pregnant.

You should make an appointment to see a gynecologist to have them perform a thorough exam. Sometimes this irregularity can be caused by hormonal changes.  If you are young this may be the case.  In some instances time or with the aid of birth control pills(if recommended by you physician), hormones can be regulated.  It is also wise to have your doctor do an exam to check for other causes that may be serious, causing the extended length of time of your period.  The sooner you have yourself checked out the better off you will be to corrrecting the problem.

well irregularity is normal during the beggining stages of your period, but regardless of irregularities you should still be getting your period about every 2-3 months. Perhaps the bleeding was caused by something other than your period since there seems to be large periods of time between each menstrual cycle. I suggest you talk to your doctor about it, a mom might make you feel better, but a doctor can actually tell you what is wrong. :)

I used to have very irregular periods.  I had maybe 4 periods a year.  If that.  I thought  it was awesome but my mom (who had 17 periods a year didn't), so she put me on birth control.  \n\nI know bc pills can be a witch, but your irregular periods can be caused by unusual hormone levels which are treated with hormones.  It isn't that bad taking 1 pill a day.  Plus, if you go to a family planning program, they'll cover your perscription.\n\nI do think you should go to the doctor and just check and make sure everything is alright.  I went off bc awhile ago.  At first I had some periods but then there was nothing.  For six months.  I went in and was diagnosed with PCOS.  I will now be on bc pills for an indfinate time and may not be able to conceive without the use of fertility drugs.\n\nJust go in and make sure everything is in working order.

Here is a list of causes of irregular periods.  Stress is definately one of them, even if you are extra happy in your new marriage that has nothing to do with stress, you can stress and still be happy.  But read this and I hope it helps, but suggestion if it doesn't change in about a month make an appt. with your gyno because it could be something more serious.  Good Luck!!\n\n\n\nCauses of Irregular Periods\nIrregular menstrual periods are usually the result of hormonal signals that have been thrown out of sync. In order to produce a period, your body makes hormones, like estrogen and progesterone. These hormones are kept in the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and ovaries inside your body. In order to trigger ovulation and menstruation, these parts of the body need to send signals to one another. Sometimes, these signals get crossed or skipped, causing irregular periods.\n\nBut what causes these hormone signals to get out of whack? Well, there are actually a number of things that can easily cause your hormone levels to change.\n\n\nPregnancy: If you are pregnant, your body will begin producing different levels of hormones. This will cause numerous pregnancy symptoms, including an end to your period. \nStress: Stress is a common cause of irregular periods. If you are fatigued, worried, or anxious this can cause your hormones to become unbalanced. \nDiet: A poor diet or extreme weight loss or gain can also affect your hormones. Women with anorexia or bulimia often have no period or irregular periods. \nExercise: Intense exercise can wreak havoc on your body, often causing irregular periods. \nMenarche: the cycles after a girl’s first period may be irregular for some time. It can take up to 3 years to get regular periods. \nMenopause: Menopause causes changes in your hormone levels, and is often signaled by irregular periods. \nHormonal Birth Control: Birth control pills and irregular periods sometimes go hand in hand. It can take a while for your body to adjust to the new levels of hormones delivered by hormonal birth control.

Everyone is different, but what you are describing isn't the norm.  Two periods a month is not usual.  It has happened to me in the past, but it sounds to me as if you should get it checked.  Most likely it will be nothing to worry about but it is a nuisance for sure.  Various hormonal imbalances can cause it, especially thyroid problems, so I think it is time for you to get it checked.

I had intense pain with my periods, irregular periods, and heavy periods when they came. I ended up finding out I had endometriosis and adenomyosis. Go see your gyn.

I have suffered from the same problems. All my reproductive organs are healthy. And yet my period is near non existant. My issue is that I am not ovulating. And you need to ovulate in order to get your period. My doctor has perscribed Clomid (a fertility drug, that makes you ovulate) in order to get  me to ovulate and then have a period. I wish you good luck in your search for answers

Have you been checked for endometriosis? Try bringing this up with your doctor, or look it up online to see if the symptoms match first. I think that endometriosis can, but not always will, cause irregular periods.

You may just have an irregular cycle. Periods can be erratic when you're in your teens. If your doctor finds that that is the case, he or she can prescribe hormonal birth control to keep your periods regular.\n\nI'd suggest going to a doctor, but you seem to have that base covered. Good luck. :)

In my experience this has happened before but not often. usually my next cycle is normal and usually it happens if there is alot of stress in my life. I would not worry about it, you cannot be regular all the time.

No, some women just dont get regular periods, especially if you do a lot of sports. If you're concerned see a doctor. "we" should have a period every month.

It's not unusual to have changes in your menstrual cycle that are unique to your body and experoience, so it is probably idiopathic and benign.  Keep your appointment with the doctor though because it there is a problem behind it, it can be VERY serious.\n\nI hope you feel better soon.

You need to see a gynocologist about this problem. there can be many reason why you're not having normal periods. Reproductive endocrinologists as well- they're highly specialized and can tell whats going on if you're having a hormone problem, which is likely

It is perfectly normal to have irregular periods.  If you have alot of stress it happens, or if you exercise too much, or don't eat properly, or you can be perfectly healthy and its genetic.  Ask your mom if she was that way.  It is slightly possible it is problem like cysts so you should definately talk to your doctor.  She'll be able to figure out if it is a problem or if it is natural for you.  If it really bothers you, you can go on the Pill, which will make your periods lighter and as regular as clockwork (I literally get mine at 9am on the Wednesday they are due!)  So, there's nothing much to worry about since you are young, but talk to your doctor and go on the Pill if it bothers you alot.
