Period question... women only please?!
Question:
Period question... women only please?
For the last several months, my period has been completely irregular, and it's gotten me a bit worried. At first I didn't think it was really enough to concern myself with, since I figured it was probably nothing serious, but...
Last month, I didn't have one at all, and this month, I had one oddly early and I only bled for 2 days then just completely stopped; which is EXTREMELY strange since I go a minimum of 5 days on average. Usually I go for a week though.
Any ideas on what could be wrong...? Could it possibly be serious enough to visit a doctor for?
Answers:
There are many causes for irregular periods, and while most aren't cause for alarm you should definitely see your gynecologist soon. Are you going for regular annual checkups? If not, now is a good time to start.
For us to sit here and try to guess what is the cause would be futile and perhaps even dangerous. Just please go see a gynecologist! Your health is too important to mess with.
