I have about 4-5 periods a year. I was just wondering if any one knew about any kind of medication or supplement I can take to regulate it?

Homeopathy :-
Take PULSATILLA 30C thrice a day half hour before meals, since you have not given any details. This is usually the head remedy in homeopathic medicine for irregular periods. Report back with your progress after taking it for three days.
Take care and God Bless you

The pill will make your period like clockwork...if I took my pill at the exact same time every day...not only did I know the exact day it would start...but usually the approximate time (within 3 hours or so)...freaky...huh

BUT....the reason why I needed the pill to regulate my periods was because I had little or no periods. Even now, I only have 4-5 a year...this is not normal!

Have you spoke with your gyno and run tests to determine why you are not having your periods every month? You need to...and don't let him (or her) blow you off saying it is normal....I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and all my tests came back normal...yet I didn't have periods and couldn't get pregnant. (we're still trying)

Perhaps periods like that are more common than I realize...but PCOS is present in about 10% of teenagers and women and is the leading cause of infertility! I would just hate to see someone not realize that there are things they can do while they are still young and not start taking the proper medication until it's too late.

Anyway, talk to your gyno...and if you don't think he is taking it seriously enough (it could be harmless, but better safe than sorry)...then talk to someone else.

I had to go through many doctors and gynos before they started listening to me that something wasn't right!!!!! Dr's can be self-absorbed and be annoyed when patients come to their offices informed...like a patient is too stupid or something...I was treated like a hypocondriat because I would come in complaining about really minor things...rapid, unexplained weight gain, blood-sugar issues, depression, no periods (I had a dr. not even BLINK when I told him I didn't have a period for 3 years!!!!!), etc.

Ok, sorry, I got totally off the topic...haha...hope your questioned was answered somewhere in that rant...LOL

I would sugest a visit with your gyno and tell him your troubles. Birthcontrole may not be the right answer depending in what he finds and your future fertility goals. What you describe is what I have just went through and we found out I don't ovulate, (the reason for no periods). The reasons for this could vary and vary in severity as well for example endometriosis. Such things can inhibbit your fertility and left untreated can cause permnament damage. Medications and/or simple surgical procedures (as I just had) can usually resolve these issues farily quickly and easily if caught early. ( these are very common problems a LOT of women have). But your best bet is to make a appointment ASAP. Good Luck!

4 to 5 periods a year is very un-common even for peri-menopausal and menopausal women. What is your age?

I would suggest to see an OBGYN to get a consultation. Menstratiing women between 13 to 35 should have regular intervals of menstration lasting between 3 to 5 days each month if all health issues have been addressed.

Ask your Doctor to do a PAP.

Birth Control. A regular birth control will give you a cycle every 28 days, and if you want to get on Seasonale that will give you 4 periods a year. Get it? Seasonale, like a period for every season! But some people dont like that because they cant really tell if it didnt work and if they might be pregnant. but try regular birth control.

In health food stores find Vitex (Chaste Berry) tincture and take 25 drops a day. Keep it up, it takes 3-4 months to work. It should regulate your periods. Also minimize cramping.

Actually if your in your teen years then your period is irregular due to body changes. If your over 18 then you might wana see a doctor .Most likely the doctor would give hormones (birth control).

Yes, of course. See your regular physician or gynecologist. Your periods can be regulated easily with medication
