What is wrong with me, irregular period.?!
Question: I am 22 yrs old, 5'9" and weigh approx. 275 pounds. I am sexually active; however, i have always used a condom. EACH AND EVERY TIME with my husband. My period is irregular. Three years ago i went on Birth control to regulate period, i missed a couple days, and since my then boyfriend, now husband was overseas i didnt think i needed birth control since we were not sexually active.... and i stopped taking the birth control. For months i was on my period every day. At first it was very heavy, then i went lighter and lighter. It's been almost two years now and i stil havent gotten my period. I dont have insurance and planned parenthood only tells me to get on birthcontrol which i dont like, makes me feel weird.
I have been spotting, i think, just a little bit of blood for about a week, not a lot, but i have to wear a panty liner. what is wrong with me?

You could be dealing with a hormone imbalance (an example only). I would recommend seeing a doctor for further evaluation of the situation. Because of the financial situation check with the city health dept to see if they offer a free women's clinic that might be able to help evaluate this situation further.
Im not to sure but, I have my period 3 weeks outta the mth... Its hell... really heavy and so on... my dr and i wanted to find out what was causing it... i went on BC and it regulated ... then i switched b/c of hormonal rages.... but eventually it evened out... Now i started getting it on a 3 week basis again... My dr told me it was normal to have irregular bleeding and opt'd me to switch again... When i went off it the secod time i didnt have my peiod for mths... and i was getting worried... when i started on a new brand ... it regulated out again... and been regular ever since.. I could be the type, the hormonal levels or your weight... hope this helps...
have you ever been checked for pcos (polycystic ovarian syndrome)? my doc recommended birth control to regulate my periods...try some different pills to see which could be a good choice for you. also, many women with this have excess weight..me included :) but after losing 30 lbs over the last few months, i've actually had periods without the help of birth control.
