I got my period when I was 12 years old, I am now 23. For the last 5 years of my life my periods have been touch and go, I can go 5-6 months without getting a period. When I do get a period it is usually so light that I dont have to wear a pad. I've had no pregnancies and I have a yearly pap done. All of my paps have come back normal. I have asked around and people tell me that It could be that I have such a light period that I dont see it or that its normal. My mother and sister are both very fertile with a combined total of 10 pregnancies between them but I cant get pregnant. I have been with my partner for 6 years and dont use protection. For the first 2-3 years of the relationship I was on birth control but got off. Also, when I first started my period I always used tampons and never pads, could this have something to do with it. My question is why do I not have periods? and is this normal? Planned parenthood only tells me that its ok and normal, Im scared, sad and need help!
