i keep missing my period. :/ like its every other month. a lot of my friends have this problem too. but my mom keeps stressing me out about it!! she keeps saying if you don't get it by july 1st i'm taking you to the doctor, but i don't want to go. has this ever happened to you? do you know any possible reasons why i may be missing it? any information would be helpful.
I think stress is more than likely causing you to skip periods. You said your mom has been stressing you, and I'm sure school, friends, boys & other things have probably been a contributing factor as well.
If it doesn't clear up, you're going to need to see a doctor whether you like it or not. It's for your own good. They can tell you what's up, and maybe give you something to help. If they find it severe enough, they may give you a birth control to help regulate your period.
Please don't be nervous about going to the doctor. It's procedure & it's only for your health. :) I hope this gives some insight & I really hope you can get your period back on track. Being irregular & stressed can really suck. :( Nobody wants an unexpected period. Good luck! [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

Usually because it is so inconvenient you can start taking the birth control pill which will cause you to have your period every single month. I don't know how long this has been ocurring for, but clearly if it's happened a lot you should go to the doctor. If you've only missed it once or twice then it's not much to worry about, because your period can randomly skip. But I would definitely do what mom says and go to the doctor! They won't even have to look at you or anything - they'll be able to give you something or tell you what's wrong just by hearing what's going on with your body.
