16/f
I haven't had a period for about 4 months now. I do notice that around the time I AM supposed to be having it, there's a tiny bit of thick dark brown stuff for about 2 days.I haven't even had the normal cramping and stuff i usually get around the time of my period. There has been no changes in my diet, there hasn't been any big changes in my life to cause stress, and I haven't had sex, so I really don't know whats up. I would go see a doctor, but my mom is a nurse and says it's normal to have irregular periods like this. Despite what she said, I still feel kind of worried. If it means anything I've been having normal periods for 2 years until 4 months ago and I remember the last "normal" period I had was abnormally short (2-3 days). So is this normal or should I really consider seeing a doctor?

Im not a doctor neither is your mother, so I cannot give you a diagnosis to your problem. But from the symptoms you describe it sounds like you need to seek the advice of a doctor. It is possible that you may have a feminine infection such as a bacterial infection in your fallopian tubes that could be affecting your periods. Please seek medical attention because you dont wont to prolong any medicaion that you may need to take to help you get better. [ nurse30's advice column | Ask nurse30 A Question ]
