No! that sounds really serious! Its normal to feel a little sad or pissed off when you have your period but if youre are honestly thinking about taking your own life it sounds like a serious hormone imbalance or just depression in general you should really talk to a doctor about it.

Yes, it is normal, my  mother had the same thing done and she felt the same way. If you have any concerns be sure and contact you doctor. God Bless!

There is nothing wrong I feel if one gets within 45 days .May be if you can try taking contraceptive pills for two months it may become regular.\nMassturbbation has nothing to do with your periods.

Back in August I had my period for 9 days straight....constant cramping, sometimes feeling like contractions, and constant bleeding. (There was even a red ring around the toilet, gross!) Anyways, I KNEW this wasn't normal for me and went to the doc's. Finds out I have ovarian cysts which was causing this, I don't know exactly why, and not saying this is your problem, but if it's not normal for you, which it's obviously not since you are frightened, I would suggest a visit to the old doctor and see what's going on.  The worse he can say is he doesn't know and to keep an eye on it, which unfortunately wouldn't be suprising, but just knowing you went to get it checked on can help calm you down.  Good luck to you!

It's all thanks to those hormones that cause PMS and all that other fun stuff. It's completely normal, nothing to worry about. Just take it with a grain of salt and deal with it just like you deal with your period. If it bothers you too much, take a pain reliever.

you're fine! Its normal for periods to get all out of whack at your age. I'm 20 and it still happens to me.

i also have the exact same symptoms. the doc said it is normal and that your period also gets heavier as you get older and have more babies and your uterus sheds. but not 2 heavy periods per month.

Yes, it is normal, that is the usual lenght of time blood comes out. And it's fine if you have a really heavy flow it evens out later on with time. Every period has it's own pattern so don't stress yourself out so much. If you want more info check with your doctor do not be embarassed they know more about this than anyone else in the world. Also don't be afraid to speak with an aunt or a femal cousin or your mom about it usually girls need support from a feminie figure to help them through the confusion.\n\nJust some facts about your period:\ngo to yahoohealth and research menstration cycle as well as puberty.

I don't think that that is normal. If I were you I would go to your school nurse and explain it to her...tell her your just concerned and maybe if she talked to your mom about it then it  might convince her that seeing a Dr. wouldn't hurt.\nI do want to say however that I'm sure things are fine and it may just be a hormonal imbalance that can be treated with medication. Don't think that there is something seriously wrong with you.  The best thing to do is to talk with the nurse and/or Dr. just to get things checked out.  Good luck hun...it's an inconvenience to have a period for a few days much less a few weeks...hang in there

Don't feel bad.  I only have my period like four time a year.  It could be because of stress, weight, lack of exercise, or a million reasons.  Other people I know have had it, too. The only thing that cured our problem, is we all went to either a gynecologist or planned parent hood and got on birth control.  Once I was put of birth control, my period was perfect.  You should definitely check with a doctor thought, because build up in the uterus from not having a period increases your chances greatly to develop certain female cancers.

Yes this can be normal.  It also depends on your height and weight.  Your body was designed to produce another life.  Therefore, if your body senses that your environment is too hostile to bring another life into the world, then periods will become irregular.\n\nYou say that you work out a lot.  If your height and weight are disproportionate (your too thin) then your periods will become irregular or stop altogether as is the case with anorexia nervosa.  The iron tablets are good if your body is low in iron.  Otherwise, you may need to visit your primary care provider or a gynecologist for more answers.\n\nThank you for your question.

I don't think there's anything "wrong" with you in terms of like being crazy or something like that.\n\nThe rapid changing of your mood suggests that there is something chemical going on, for sure.  To go from something called "mania" (which can feel like happiness, or too much energy, or anger/rage, can't sleep, or can't stop moving) to something called "depression" (which can feel like sadness, but not always - can be low energy, loss of appetite, irritable) is definitely chemical - like your serotonin levels are off or keep cycling low to high.  People who have bipolar disease have this happen but their cycles are usually days or weeks or even months long.  If it's happening in the course of a day for you, it is probably something else.  But this is very treatable, usually with a medication.  Your regular doctor will probably be able to help you with it.

You are normal.  If this were abnormal, your mother would be taking you to the doctor.  In the beginning, periods can be very irregular.  In fact, they can be this way throughout your teens.  When I was younger, mine came between 25 and 35 days apart once they got going.  In the very beginning (I was 11), they were even more sporadic.\n\nHave your mother buy you a book about the changes your body is going through to help you know what to expect and why everything is happening the way that it is.  Not only will this make you feel better, it will also give you a point of reference to know when something is NOT normal and when you should go to a doctor.\n\nA good one might be: \nWhat's Happening to My Body?

Depends how old you are. I took my teenage daughter to the doctor's as her periods are very irregular and he said it's normal at her age for them to be erratic. Perhaps you should visit your doctor and check there is nothing wrong? If the frequency and/or severity of your periods bother you, there is the option of going on a lose dose contraceptive pill to regulate your periods and reduce the pain. If it's only happened this once I really wouldn't worry. I've not heard of the weather affecting menstruation but apparently the moon can. I'd talk to your doctor if you're really worried if only to put your mind at rest x x

I think all women experience some discomfort towards the beginning of their period.  I think you are normal, just experiencing it a little worse than most.  If it is really bad then see a doctor.  There are prescriptions to lessen the effect.

It depends on how heavy your periods are. Sometimes you feel it but sometimes you don't.
