Late Period or something wrong?

Q: Hi there, I have got a strange question to ask people in the unknown cyber-world as i am too embarassed to go to a doctor,Im 20 years old and I think, well im begining to wonder, if i have something wrong with my menstrual cycle.I first started my periods when I was 15, I had one and then I didnt have another one again for about 8 months. I was told this was normal for slim young girls, so I thought nothing of it.Then when i was 17 I got my periods every month because I was on ‘the pill’ to help my teenage skin (as pescribed by a doctor). When I came off the pill, whilst still 17, I had periods every month for about 5 months but then they just stopped again and came only once every 3 monthsAt the time I was not bothered as I hated being on, so it didnt effect me. I now only have a period once every 3 to four months.But now i’m twenty and I had my last period in June and it’s now October it’s the longest my body has been in between.Shall I carry on being happy and not having to go through periods every month? Or is there something more to this? Will it effect me having children in later life or does this just happen to some women?Im a healthy 10 stone and 5’7. I eat a healthy diet, im not really an excercise person but i dont walk every where and go to badminton once a week. What do you think I should do and is this normal?

A: hey irregular periods could indicate polysystic ovaries. Go get urself checked out by a doctor as this happened to me. when i was 16 my periods came about 2 times a year i went on the pill and they became regular. i then stopped when i was 19 to plan 4 a child it took 4 years until i got pregnant. ” years later i got pregnant again and its only after that i had complications after giving birth to my son that they realised i had polysistic ovaries and they were astonished that i had had 2 children. i have now been trying again for 3 years with no sucess. I get a period once a year if im lucky. Get urself checked just to be on the safe side.

Personal Period Question.?

Q: When I was about 16 I got my first period, I am now 17 going on 18 and I have not had three periods in a row. I used to think it was because I worked out a lot and didn’t eat HUGE meals.. but since i’ve stopped, it still isn’t regular, and I haven’t had it in about 2/3 months now… I get this whitish discharge every now and then… Is something wrong? I’ve probably had 6 periods total, and the doctor said when I was 15 that if I didn’t get a period before I was 16 then sometimes was wrong.. but I got it about a month before my birthday.. I’m kind of worried that it’s not regular, and only comes about every 3/4 months.. if that.. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong with me?

A: I think that you need to go back to the doctor and explain to him exactly what you said here. You may simply need some oral contraceptives. Plus, it’s a good idea to have a pap-smear done so that the doctor can screen for any other gynecological problems that you may or may not have.

A: I stopped BC around the same time (dec 29th) regular cycles and still nothing.. but I am told it is normal for a healthy couple to take 6 months of trying, so don’t stress yet! I am told stessing about it will prolong it as well… but I know it also takes at least a month for the BC to fully leave your system…good luck!
