Well, I am 19 years old. I have been having my period since I was 13. There is not a certain amount of time between my periods... I have gone 3 months w/o having one before. And sometimes I have them after 28 days. I thought it was normal for them to be irregular for like the first year, but what about 6 years? Blah! Is that normal?

I'm sure you're fine.

Yeah; me too! @.@

i first got mine in 6th grade and now im in 10th.. i get them like twice a year! my mom got worried so i had to get it checked.. turns out its normal and im fine =] so i just enjoy not getting it every month

my friend has the same thing going on, and according to her doc it's either hereditary or just a come-and-go thing, but if it's been going on for a long time, see a doctor, and they have medication to regulate your menstruation. yeah also if you get like major mood swings or whatever it's probably because of the irregularity.

err i think its regular.. i havent had mine for uhh... 2 months now? but this is still my first year so i think its okay for mine to be irregular... im not sure, go see a docter?

first years are always irregular, wait it out for like 2-3 years

Also, if you drink cold water during your period, it tends to cause irregular times for your period to act up...

when i first had mine (like within 2 years) mine came almost every 2 weeks!!

don't worry mine's realllly irregular too...sometimes it'll be sooooo light one week....then be normal the next week...leaving me with a 2 wk period. *sigh* SUCKS!

you'd think that when i finally have my period it would be extra long to make up for the ones i missed... but i always have 1-week periods.

it's probably normal, but i aint no doctor so who knows. i would love for mines to be irregular

mines pretty regular

but it depends on ur diet n heredity... so dont wry. and not everyone is regular :p

ya i'm pretty sure mine's from heredity

mine is always irregular, so i never know wen to expect it

Mine used to be pretty regular... but now it's anything but. ::lol::

it's normal for it to come irregularly. i wouldnt worry too much about it. but if it really bothers you, go see a doctor.

yea. some people have irregular periods till they reach menopause

i have them 2, i think itz heredital

i have my period every 4 months..sometimes less than that..but mostly every 4 months and when i have it i have it for about a week and a half..im 18 and its been like that since i was 13

wow. it is good to know that i am not alone here! thanks everyone! :-D

lotsa love!

TWICE A YEAR?! damm.. your lucky. lol.

i wonder if it's harder to get pregnant if you don't have very many periods. What do yall think?

Irregular periods just depends on the person. It has a lot to do with stress also. One of my friends have her period for 10 days twice a month. She had to take birth control periods to help with the flow. She's fine now.

I don't think it matters if your period is irregular or not if it will determine the possibility of getting pregnant. I think it will just be harder to determine if you are pregnant or not.

mine's pretty regular
