For an eleven year old to have two periods in two weeks is worrying me. Does anyone think she should go to a doctor?

My daughter had the same problem..She had her first period and then nothing for three months and then had two within a week of each other. It takes a year for the body to get to a regular cycle. If her bleeding isn't heavy and it stops within a few days then she is ok. If the bleeding continues or gets heavier contact her doctor.

There doesn't sound to be anything wrong; when we're young, our bodies are still adjusting and periods can often be irregular for the first few months of menstruation - If things don't settle down with time, or if you're still worried, take her along to see a doctor who can ease both of your minds and make sure nothing is wrong.
take care,

Don't worry, its normal for periods to be very erratic when they first start, they can take a year or more to settle into a monthly cycle. You might find that she has big gaps with no bleeding as well. If you are worried, then the practice nurse will be able to reassure you, but this happens to many girls when they first start.

She's fine. Children's periods can be erratic. Just make sure she isn't getting anaemic through loss of iron - feed her lots of this in her food, perhaps? - and don't jump to conclusions too early. If they get to be really painful or too regular after this then think about going to the doctor, but there's no need to panic. Her body may take years to adjust yet.

My first lasted just over 5 days when I was 13 yrs old and I remember my mum worrying and wanting to take me to the doctors. As its her first one, I'm sure they will be a bit erratic until they settle into a routine. The wonderful start to puberty, NOT!

No, she doesn't have to go to the doctor. Her periods will be irregular until her body adjust to the new change its going through. Don't worry, my daughter is 12 and she has had hers for a year and she is still irregular.

youthful women will enhance as much as be women human beings. women human beings do artwork and make infants. Marriage exchange into an financial transaction aimed in the direction of expanding the wealth of the tribe. women human beings have been seen sources. they did no longer particularly have the concept-approximately human rights decrease back then. The quran is a historic, anthropological rfile reflecting an historical way of existence and perception device. Now however, its evident to work out women human beings are human beings and deserve rights from beginning to dying.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and i can tell you that it is perfectly normal for this to happen as her hormones have not yet been established and it needs time to adjust, this can take up to 2 years so don't worry to much unless she has been expelling a lot of black clots.
