all of a sudden irregular period?

Question

I have never taken birth control in my life. I am 25years old. I believe I first got my period when I was about 13 or 14. My periods have always been pretty regular, usually 29 day cycles with bleeding lasting approx. 5 days sometimes a day less or day more. About 6 months ago, my period started coming about every 25-28days a little more variation. Last month (november) I was approx 6 days late. I believe that the period only last about 3days, but it seemed to be normal bleeding (maybe a little more brown in color). this month if you go by a 28day cycle, I was 2or3 days late. I just started today, and it was a heavy as normal, but it seems to already be slowing down some. I have been having some pretty hard cramps this month that I don't believe I had last month. What could be the causes of this? I have had unprotected sex for several years, but I have not actually been diagnose with infertility. I have no children. Has anyone experienced similar symptoms likethis before becoming prego

Answer 1

I'm not sure. Its probably fine, and your body is just going through a stage where its changing.

Don't worry too much at this point.

But I would tell you to see a doctor. Just to make sure that everything is ok. If you haven't taken a pregnancy test, it's possible you are pregnant, but you could be having a miscarriage or some other complication. Last month you could have had implantation bleeding, it probably would have been lighter and a brownish color rather than a bright red like a normal period. And if you are pregnant cramping and heavy bleeding now wouldn't be a good sign. If you have what looks like clots and very heavy bleeding, (more than what you'd have with a period) I would try to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Answer 2

Irregular periods are usually a sign that your body is out of balance in certain areas.
As we go older, the body changes as well.
It took me so many years to realise that abdominal cramps during period can be cured and prevented. A few days late usually is quite ok.

Why not wait a week more and check it out using the pregnancy kit?

i get that sometimes too. this month i've had the same thing. it came on time but it was medium for for 2 days. then the 3rd was light, and that was it. i usually have a medium flow for like 4 days, so it's weird. but maybe your cycle is just changing.
