Irregular Period...

[Symptom]

I've had an irregular period, since the first I've started. Back on the first day I started, May 28, 2005 (I'm only fourteen) it only went for like a day. But I didn't worry, because I remember my mom tellin' me that it goes light the first time.

The second time, it went a little heavier, for three days. So I was happy with myself.

Then, on the third time, it went unexpectedly for eight days straight, VERY heavy. On the second night, I went through three pads in a course of two hours. And I wasn't at home either. Luckily, we were about to leave North Carolina, and I had just enough for the night. It was horrible pain, too. The only pain I experience on my period.

Now my fourth one, went for four to five days, the most regular one I've had...or was it?

See, I went on it for about a week, and then the following week, I showed signs of spotting. I thought nothin' of it. Then like the next day, I showed more signs of spotting. And then yesterday, nothing came.

But I woke up this mornin', and there my period was. Weird, eh? I had to miss school today, because of it's irregularity. It bothers me as to why it is so irregular. It shouldn't go for one week, and then go off for a few days, and then go back on. It's weird. My mom thinks it might be hormones.

I don't know. I don't think it's too serious, for I am experiencing no pain.

I would just like some help, as to what you guys think it might be.

It's probably nothing serious, but you should still go to the gynecologist about it.

It's absolutely nothing to worry about.

It sounds exactly as when i first had my periods.
Your body needs to get used to it, and that will take time. You are changing a lot now,
and that's just part of it.
Not to scare you, but I experienced a lot of pain during the first days of my first periods,
and sometimes i even fainted.
Every girl just experiences it different, and this is just yours.

A lot of girls never get a 'regular' period..there isin't anything wrong with that. I don't think you have anything to worry about especially since it is very common for it to be irregular the first months you get it(I believe I heard somewhere it can take up to 2 years for you to get on a regular schedule). If you are stressed over something that could also be the cause.

If you are stressed over something that could also be the cause.

Online text battle raps can do that to you.

You probably should have posted this in the female section.

No offense but, I don't know why people post something like this on here. Go see a doctor. I'm sure he'll/she'll know more than us.

I didn't know there was a female section. Lolness at Rich B.

[BlueEyes71304]

Well, there's nothing wrong with you anyways. Everyone's period is irregular when they first start. Worst case you might be put on the pill.

i dont think its serious
like someone already said- it can take two years before u get on a regular schedule

YAY! I need to stop worrying. Hey, how does "being on the pill" regular your period, BlueEyez71304?

[Chatalean]

It's normal. 800 mg. Ibuprofen are good for cramps. Get an annual pap smear from your gynecologist and the next time you are there talk to your doc about it. I hope you feel better soon.

I don't know how it works, I just know it does. Doctors don't like putting you on the pill for that reason though. So, it's unlikely he/she will unless it goes on for a long period of time. No pun intended?
