It's completely normal for your cycles to fluctuate when you are young as your body is trying to regulate your hormones and eventually your cycles will become more regular. This may take a few more cycles or another couple years for this to occur, it really just depends on how your body reacts, since everyone is different and will react differently to hormones. You can try tracking your cycles/periods on a calendar and put a mark on the date you start and keep track of the starting and ending date each month, and then you may be able to sort of predict when your next period will come. You know that the shortest cycle so far has been 34 days, so from your last period you can start 34 days from then or a small amount of time later.

aa..my periods are always irregular..for example..may 27, june 13, july12, august 26 but it happens once every month and lasts for 8 days.Is it really necessary to match the date?

No, the only women who have a period on the same date each month are women with a 30-31 day cycle. Otherwise your period will never start on the same day-- which doesn't mean they're irregular. For example, if a female has a 28 day cycle and starts her period on June 16th and it lasts for 7 days, her next cycles will be July 14-20 and August 11-17th.

YOUR cycles though are a little harder to predict. Based on the dates you listed your shortest cycle is 17 days while your longest is 45 days.

Yes it is not uncommon with cycles to be a little off :)  It's a good rule of thumb to just get in the habit of marking down the dates to see if it ever does have a pattern :)  Keep us posted.
