hey girls, ok so question. Those of you who have had your period for many years, are any of you still very irregular? And does the heaviness vary?
Mine is VERY irregular, and i’ve had it for nearly 8 years. for a few months itll start to get regular, but then it gets crazy again. Last summer i had it for 6 weeks! (that’s happened before. Also, when I’m with my friends a lot, we all get it around the same time (thats supposed to be due to some hormone women give off or something when they are menstrating).
yeah mine is pretty irregular - it got that way when i gained my freshman 15. But now that I lost those 15 lbs, i'm slowly coming back to monthly cycle again.
but bleeding str8 for 6 weeks? I dont think that's normal at all - I strongly recommend you see a doctor. However, there are always strange exceptions.
You should really see a doctor. You can be prescribed hormones that will help make you become more regular. Bleeding for so long is not only bad for you but it must be painful.
You stupid number nicked larki, go to your doctor ASAAAAAAP!
Mine was irregular a lot, till now that I started taking estrogen pills. You might have PCO (Polycystic Ovaries) its very common in girls. Its like sometimes your ovaries make too many eggs so traffic jam ho jata hai and you don't get your periods regulary, or they start producing too much estrogen that causes heavy and continous bleedings. Go to your doctor and find out whats causing your periods to be irregular....You know if this is not treated soon, later it can become a case of infertility...Im seroius!
hey all oh my…well its only happened twice in the past 8 years that I had it for so long. Its not that heavy when its like that. Otherwise i’m just irregular in when it comes these days. When I was younger it lasted longer. I think both my mom and khala were irregular too for a while. Anyways, my mom had wanted to take me to a doctor a few years back, but they said I was too young that it would sort itself out. But now I’m older and should go have one anyway.
LM-thanks for the advice. Next break, i’ll make an appointment.
(btw, this is totally random, but how is everything going with you? are you still in Pak?)
hayaa-no it doesn’t really hurt. its just annoying you know?
first of all see ur doctor as soon as possible :)
second , heaviness does vary depending on the type of nutrition u r taking in. also depends on if u work out or not.. if u do how often.. basically how active u r. i think it also depends if u r on some sort of medication or not :) so dont worry.

Holy Moly! I'm gettin to my doctor soon to!
I doctor cozin sai dthe same thign to me...but infertility now thats a risk I don't wana take!
I'm VERY irregular and when I bleed it's VERY bad...it's like I need a change every 30 mins...but thankfully no pain..but I become as white as a ghost...
For me iron tablets regularise my cycle..but once I stop or forget for a while it goes haywire again!
like i said-the really long one only happened 2wice. And the first time-the doctor wouldn't see me b/c was too young. The second time was just this past summer.
from experience i can say that it's normal 4 ur periods to b irregular, i've had mine 4 like the past 10 - 12 years. And they have been irregular, much to my admiting similar to yours...
your body's just adjusting to the lifestyle ur hormones just need time
well 714 u should consult a doctor
cuz periods may vary from 3- 14 days
normal one is 7 days i mean first three days r must and after that is bla bla some have periods more then 10 days but the limit is 14dayzz only !
but after that time its really abnormal u must consult a doc cuz ur loosing ur fresh blood !
so siso u must take vitamin C daily !! it controls that problem .
and visit ur doc asap!!
