Has anything changed lately? high stress, trauma.? if it only happens with this month, than it's something that passed, and shouldn't be reoccurring. if it keeps going, you need to have hormonal levels checked and a physical.

Usually if you're close to the age when you first started, it'll take your body a while to regulate itself. Though it's pretty normal to have fairly irregular periods to a point, though if it continues to be super sporadic then it should be checked by a doctor. Hormone levels should be looked at, as well as just an overall check up "down there".
