period..


Question Posted Saturday August 30 2008, 1:20 am

im 16. the first time i got my period was in may of 2006, when i was 14. it was really irregular at first, like normal. it was pretty heavy too, and really red, and would last about a week.. but in between i'd always have weird, dark brown, really light periods that didn't last as long.

well skip ahead to now, over 2 years later..(shouldn't it be regular by now?)...
i don't remember the last time i had the heavier, red, longer period. i kind of called that my normal period.. seriously it was like i had 2 different types.
so basically i havent had my "normal" period in at least 3ish months maybe? all summer, i havent had it. at one point, it was brown, extremely light, almost more like discharge than period blood..and it was random..like i had it for one week, then it was gone, and then a week later it was back, but only for a few days. it's just been really unregular. and i havent had anything since early july i think it was.

i'm scared something is wrong with me..im not sexually active, not on the pill..idk? is this normal?..at all? thank you

Well, not everyone has regular periods and it does sound a little strange BUT I definitley think you need to see a gynecologist, not even just a regular doctor. Unless your mom won't take you to one then a regular doctor should be alright too.

I was actually told by my gynecologist that periods can be irregular for the first few years of a girls life, especially if they are younger when they get it (his words not mine.) And I know mine were. My wasn't irregular like yours but it wasn't exactly normal either.

I wouldn't stress yourself over it or, don't let anyone scare you about it just try to talk to your mom and see if she can take you to the gynecologist or if you for any reason cannot talk to your mom then go to a walk in clinic and ask them because I know that if there is something serious going on, no one on here would want to give you the wrong advice. Hope this helps a little and good luck! =)

This is a question that should not be answered by someone online. This sounds like a serious health problem. You should go see a doctor. You need a professional opinion. Anyone on here who tells you anything, one way or another, is probably not sure and is making a guess.
