If you feel very worried than you should go to your doctor right away and ask for an ultrasound. If you are pregnant, the fetus will be visible during the ultrasound and then you will know for sure. You could also get them to take your blood and test your hormone levels. If you are pregnant that should tell your doctor right away.

I am irregular myself.. i always think i might be pregnant but always coming up negative until i got pregnant which i lost the  baby recently.. anyways you may not know or notice but really theres a lot of woman out there that are irregular, which my doctor said is normal most of the time.. but obviously everybody is different so my suggestion is if you are sexually active then you must see your doctor once a year for a regular check up and papsmere you need that to make sure you are well and have no infections or disease of any kind. and your doctor would probably have to do some bloodworks to see what causes your irregular period. doctors also sometimes recommend you take pills because it does help regulate your period, and since you are really young i dont think you are ready to have any kids anytime soon, i would suggest you start taking pills unless otherwise.

Good luck! i hope i helped somehow! =)

You never just randomly start take medicines. Speak to a doctor and they can determine the cause and tell you the best course of action.
