Dont feel bad my friend. I am 35 and aunt Flo stays with me on a constant time period. I may stop a day or so then flood over and over. I think I may have fibroids or hardening of the ovaries, but who knows. I dont have children, nor do I plan to. I want a partial historectomy becuase i am sick of this mess. So dont feel bad, all we band of women understand...the gulf is with me also.

Contrary to popular belief menstrual cramps are not a necessary part of being a woman, excluding health problems such as endometriosis most women can prevent period pains all together, or at the very least cure the pain when they do get any easily without resorting to painkillers and without messing up their bodies with extreme hormonal methods.\n\nPeriods are only as good or bad as YOU make them – if you have a good attitude towards your period this does effect your periods including making period pains less painful, also of course if you have a positive attitude about your body it also means you are more likely to research and learn about it and so find out that there are in fact a lot of things you can do to prevent menstrual cramps all together.\n\nHere are some ideas both to prevent and ease menstrual cramps;\n\n•Do not use painkillers, these actually increase period pain over time as your body build immunity and gets used to the painkillers being within your system, not only that but they simply numb the pain they do not actually do anything about the cause of the pain – pain is your bodies way of telling you that something is wrong, don't ignore it. Coming off painkillers if this is what you normally use can be hard because the next few periods after stopping using painkillers can seem more painful, but if you use other methods to prevent or cure menstrual cramps it does get better.\n\n•Take herbal teas, many herbal teas are ideal for menstrual pains as well as other menstrual or cycle related problems including curing PMS, reducing flow, inducing your periods and regulating your menstrual cycle. Herbs to try are as follows; Lemon balm, Black Haw, Blessed thistle, Camomile, Wild marjoram, Red raspberry, Wild strawberry, Valerian, Yarrow, Raspberry leaf, Blue cohosh, Dong quai – Check with a health store to make sure they are right for you, some stores will also sell women's blends that would help as well.\n\n•Don't use tampons, as well as being very bad for vaginal health many tampons are also made in such a way that they expand lengthways meaning that they can expand straight into your cervix, which is already delicate due to menstruation, and increase cramping. Commercial pads are also best avoided because as well as also being bad for vaginal health they are generally uncomfortable so hardly help with menstrual cramps. If you use these options consider other options such as; rubber bell-shaped menstrual cups, silicone bell-shaped menstrual cups, diaphragm as menstrual cups, homemade menstrual cups, softcups, organic tampons, sponges, padettes, padded panties, organic pads, cloth pads, homemade pads, free-flow, free-flow layering, free-flow instinctive, extraction, toilet paper, period blankets, etc.\n\n•Avoid salty foods and alcohol, these can increase bloating by retaining water, and so make you feel generally sluggish as well as making cramping worse.\n\n•Drink lots of water, this can aid in avoiding bloating. This will also help with headaches or migraines brought on by menstruation. Also adding lemon juice, a natural diuretic can decrease bloating.\n\n•Eat your greens, and a healthy diet can make you feel a lot better at the best of times, but during menstruation it can be a good pick up and help avoid that sluggish feeling.\n\n•Avoid foods like dairy and caffeine, generally these can cause problems for people, during menstruation this can be particularly true, many find these increase period pains. Also avoid soy products; these are notorious for causing menstrual cramps.\n\n•Take up yoga, this is a very good exercise tip because as well as being gentle exercise it also has stretching that can help even further and breathing exercises that can help relax you and so further aid in relieving menstrual cramps.\n\n•Take a bath, a nice warm bath can help relax you and the heat can ease period pains as well, avoid things that can harm your vagina like bubble bath, however some nice

Depending on how irregular you are...if it's the type thing where you bleed alot alot of the time...please do go see your GYN.  I have recently gone through the same thing, only bleeding for months at a time.  I found out something was wrong with me.  I'm not saying there is with you but it's best to know and get treated for it.  Either way, it's still good to go because then you will know regardless.  Dr.'s sometimes prescribe birth control to regulate women also.  Which is a wonderful thing. Trust me :) lol

If ou know you are due for it and want to try inducing the period, make Parsley Tea. You need fresh parsley, not dried. Warning it tastes AWFUL!\n\nRecipie can be found at sites below:\nhttp://community.livejournal.com/bloodmoonherbs/911.html\nhttp://www.sisterzeus.com/Parsley.htm\n\nHigh doeses of Vit C can be used to induce periods. Be careful with this one.\n\nascorbic acid (Vitamin C) to induce several periods. I've only had it bring on my period a day or two sooner than it would have come otherwise. It's important to use pure Vitamin C without bioflavinoids; bioflavinoids are most commonly seen with Vitamin C in the form of rose hips, so check what your bottle says and purchase a new one if necessary/feasible.\n\nI also recommend taking something to help out your kidneys, since there are mixed opinions as to whether large amounts of ascorbic acid will harm them. Try dandelion tea, available for purchase at my local health food store. (Don't know what's in your area.)\n\nAnd when people say "a lot," they're generally talking in terms of 5-10g per day. but stick more in the 5-7g per day range.\n\nIf you're just trying to regulate your period, the easiest and most common way to do that is go on hormonal birth control pills.

Periods can fluctuate.  You can also trick yourself into thinking that your pregnant. \n\nDon't worry.  Sometimes your body doesn't take as long for a period as it does on other times.  If you've had some really stressful stuff happen, your body might have cut it short.  \n\nSometimes, when you're consistently having really short or too frequent periods, you're not ovulating.  If you keep having problems talk with your doctor.\n\nHe can give you a prescription for a few days worth of progesterone to jump start your uterus and get it back on track and more regular.  But only bother doing that if you consistently have problems with your period.

Hot water bottles and heating pads saved me, I had cramps so bad at least once a month my mom would have to take me out of school. Even as I got older I usually had to stay home from work one day a month, because the pain was terrible. BTW, my mom had terrible cramps as well. Nowadays I am on Seasonale, so I only get periods 4 times a month. It is HEAVEN!\n\nHere's my funny story - I was a late-bloomer, I didn't get mine until I was in 9th grade. I was on the phone talking to a friend, and happened to be wearing a jean skirt (does this date me??!!). I look down and I see what has happened. I carefully walk to the kitchen where my parents were eating dinner, and tell my mom that I need to speak to her. "What is it?" she asks, in front of my dad. Again I tell her I need to speak to her, and again she wants me to tell her in front of my dad. Needless to say, I finally pulled her into the bathroom, asked her if I had indeed gotten my period, and she said yes. I was already prepared, having ordered a box through mail order that had info booklets, pads, etc. The funniest thing was that my dad, once my mom told him, didn't know what to do. He ended up buying me a bouquet of flowers as a sort of "congratulations" gift!

First, the best advice I can give you is to speakto your mum. She will be able to buy you some sanitary towels and tell you how to use them, when to change them etc.\n\nIf you get crampy pains in the lower part of your stomach, a hot water bottle often helps, as can a warm bath, or some pain killers. Gentle exercise usually helps as well.\n\nHaving your period shouldn't stop you from doing ANYTHING you would usually do. For things like swimming etc, you can use tampons, although I'd advise you stick with towels just now andjust avoid swimming when you're on your period. Having your period is not an illness and should not be treated as one. It is not an excuse to lie about the house and slack off your chores or anything like that - sorry!! It happens to 50% of the population once a month and if we all treated it as an illness, the world would grind to a halt!\n\nBut seriously, speak to your mum about it. She'll be able to help you out much more than anyone on the internet can.

SEE A DOCTOR.\n\nUnder any circumstance, a doctor can walk you through whats going on and advise you how to take care of your body.\n\nPregnant:  You should know ASAP, so you can learn how to take care of your body. . . A doctor is one person who is there to help you.  You need to be looking after taking care of this baby.  RESPECT LIFE.\n\nNot-Pregnant:  Are you athletic/too skinny?  Overly athletic women can skip their periods.  A doctor will still be able to educate you on how to deal with your body and the changes that are making you skip your period.  \n\nI distrust doctors too, and if you're young you may be worried about how to get mom & dad to take you to the doctor, but these are little challenges that you are capable of taking care of.\n\nBest wishes

Try taking Evening Primrose oil.  It oils the machinery so to speak and may just help you regulate.  It will also help prevent all the usual symptoms .. headaches, bloating, menstrual cramps, etc.  Exercise helps too and yoga is ideal.\n\nhttp://www.angelic1healing.com

Heating pads are great. They also sell at the drug store heating patches for mestrual cramps. With me the more active i was the worse they would get and the heavier it would get.\n\nIf it is that bad then u need to discuss it with a physician. There are a lot of options. Hormone therapy (not the birth control pill).\n\nI suffered with the same, but i ended up having a partial hysterectomy. I am pain free and period free. Yipee!!!\n\nThere are solutions. Hope you find yours. Remember all of our bodies are different.\n\nI noticed an answer about saying to get in the tub. No you do not want to get into the tub. That is a good way to get an infection. Way too much temptation for bacteria.\n\nYou could try letting the hot water from the shower spray/massage on your tummy.

there are many factors as to why your period isn't consistant.stress, diet, health are all factors. you should see your family doctor. she/he may want to put you on birth control just to bring it back to 25 or 28 cycle.

if you can try to get up at least once an hour to stretch. i've tried raspberry leaf tea. it worked for me. but you shouldn't drink this if you think you could be pregnant. it could cause miscarriage. also lots of water helps me too.

if u r planning a family consult ur doctor on this. u can avoid ur partner from getting pregnant is by taking the birth control pills.ofcourse there are some disadvantages like she may gain some extra weight. also she can go for intra uterine device to stop from being pregnant. but the safest way is use a condom and u can have sex without condom after her 5day to 12 day and also after 18 day to till she gets her cycle. this should be done only if her periods are regular.

You can take birth control pills to regulate your period. There are no negative side effects from not having a period. Women don't actually need it, most just find it reassuring at the end of the month to know they aren't pregnant. Seasonale is not the only birth control on the market that can help you skip periods. Any birth control will allow you to do this if you skip the non-hormonal pills at the end of the birth control pack and start a new pack. \nTo relieve cramps try cutting out sodium, take midol, and exercise which helps relieve cramps.\n\nThe weight gain the other users are speaking of is due to the actual use of the birth control which can cause weight gain, not just because they skipped periods. Also, for some people birth control can clear your skin up, as it cleared mine up.\n\nOh honey, birth control DOES NOT reduce your ability to bear children later on. Who told you that? Please seek the advice of a gynecologist or even an obstetrician. If you are trying to have a baby NOW then yes, you will not be able to get pregnant if you are currently on birth control. But if you want to have children later and stop taking birth control you will be fine. I have spoken with my gynecologist about this same exact issue. Totally not true. Birth control will not affect your fertility after you stop taking it.

drink a lot of fluids. Avoid things like pudding and coffee. Caffiene makes you urinate more and you need a lot of fluids when you're on your period because of the loss of water with blood. Take Buscopan plus if you could get the pills. If you can't find plus just take Buscopan and panadol with it. Very good with cramps. Choose to drink warm fluids rather than cold.

Best I know of is to use the Pill. My periods without it are all over the place (I'm almost 32). Many thing affect how regular, or unregular your periods are, such as stress, diet, etc. I take a birth control pill that is LOW estrogen or progeterone only, I forget exactly (it's generic name is Errin), since I want as little "extra" in my body as possible. It' releases just enough without getting me all moody or anything. Asy your gyno...he/ she can be lots of help. BTW, mine is a female gyno, and I swear by her, because not only is she a doctor, but she's also a woman who can offer real life experiences, not just a man reading out of a medical textbook. Hope this helps some. :)

First: use a condom\nSecond: use bed linen protection!\nThird: Don't assume you will not get pregnant, if your next cycle is meant to be a short one, you might be ovulating and still have your period!\n\nOther than that, if you and your partner are both ok, than go for it (you might actually enjoy the extra lubrication!)
