Frequent Periods?

[xXoblivionXx]

I know you're suppose to get it once a month but I get mine about every 15 days. Is that okay for my health, to get it twice a month?

That's practically what mine is. I dont think there's too much bad about it. With me it contributes to my anemia because Im losing a lot of blood. If you feel theres a problem with it then I would go to the doctor and they might be able to tell you if there's anything majorly wrong with it.

Can I just ask, do you suffer from heavy periods? And how many days are you on for?

I doubt it's a major problem, but it's not normal and you do need to see a doctor. It can be normal if you've only started within the last year or so, but after it that it should regulate and if it doesn't it normally means something isn't right.

Not to heavy and they last about maybe 5 days or so.

You should be alright then. If they last more than 7 days I would be worried but if you still aren't sure then I suggest you see a doctor. They'll give you a more accurate diagnosis (for lack of a better word).

My periods took 3 years after starting to regulate. They always say if it's not regulated 2 years after starting then you should go to the doctors, so I did. They told me there was nothing wrong with me.

Irregular periods can be caused my all sorts, such as stress and issues with weight (if you are over or under weight).

Another thing to consider is if you are on any form of hormonal medication, such as contraception or other types. I'm on the implant and before I was on the progesterone only pill, both have caused me to have much more frequent periods.

But yeah I wouldn't worry about it, and if you are worried, go and see your doctor.

they take some time to regulate
im in the same boat.. mine are always messed up
over the past 5 years i have been on several birth controls including the IUD
and in that time frame i have screwed up my body... i cannot get pregnant or hold down a regular cycle. my cycles used to last up to 7 days and i would only bleed heavy the first 2-3
now my periods only last 3-4 days and they come at different times every month so i can never track them.... and i can never know when i am ovulating because well as i said already i cant track my body anymore... i am looking into get surgury to repair my uterine walls... anyways your still young so give it time... your period wont full regulate until your in your late teen years and you even might still struggle with it as you mature into a young adult.
