It might take several years for a girl's period to become regular. One month the period might last 4 days, whereas the next month it might be 6 days. Some women experience irregular periods for several years and might not ever be "regular." Some doctors will prescribe birth control pills to help regulate your menstrual cycle. Talk to your doctor to find how you can regulate your cycle if it is irregular.

Karen answered Monday August 1 2005, 6:04 pm: Yes, this is normal and there is nothing wrong with you. When you're pregnant, you don't menstruate but you can spot. Your period is just irregular, meaning it will change on you and come and go and different times, so you don't need to worry. [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]

And the firt few years you get your period it is IRREGULAR. Meaning, it's not on a normal schedule. It's nothing to be worried about and nothing to freak out over. Expect it to be all out of whack for a while. It takes a few years for it to come on a regular basis. [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
