Periods


Question Posted Thursday August 24 2006, 5:15 pm

Okay, I've had my period for about a year or a little bit longer and it's still irregular. How long does it take for it to come regulary?

And are there any ways to get the cramps and backaches to go away without taking Advil or Midol or such? Is exercising (like running, pilates) helpful or harmful because I do those every other day

Hi

Many things can determine how regularly your period comes every month. When I was obese (and I'm not saying you are), I could go months without getting my period. Stress can also affect your cycle. If it is a great concern for you talk to your doctor about some options.

I used to have really bad pain and other horrible PMS symptoms. My doctor suggested going back on the birth control pill. It has really helped. Not only is my period very regular, but it keeps PMS symptoms at a minimum.

Exercise can be beneficial to symptoms, but so can a good heating pad, or midol. The way I look at it...if popping a couple of midol can help get you through a sometimes very painful time...use it!!

Take care,

Brenda

periods usuallly start out irregular and then eventually become regular. tho it may take a few years it does happen. but then later in years again it could become irregular again.

and to get rid of cramps. running helps..but takes a little longer so you should prob just stick with midol and advil.

hope that helps

it could take a few years before it comes regular. some girls have it regularly & some girls have it irregularly. i know a few that never had it regular & a few that never had it irregularly. basically, it all depends. you can get rid of cramps by running, but it will take longer than using a pill or a heating pad.

-hope that helped!♥
