I AM 19 YEARS OLD AND I AM A VIRGIN (SO I KNOW I AM NOT PREGNANT) AND AM NOT ON THE PILL. ANYWAYS WHEN I GET MY PERIOD IT ABOUT ONCE EVERY 3 MONTHS,AND ONCE I HAVE MY PERIOD THEY ARE VERY HEAVY.  WELL RECENTLY I HAVE HAD MY PERIOD FOR THE PAST MONTH OR SO. I AM NOT SUFFERING FROM ANY CRAMPS FOR ANY DISCOMFORT, BUT I HAVE PRESENTLY BECOME CONCERNED WHEN I STARTED GETTING MORE AND MORE BLOOD CLOTS. I AM NOT ON ANY KIND OF MEDICATION AND AM NOT TIRED( BUT I AM MORE SO TIRED OF BUYING FEMININE PRODUCTS).AND I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHATS CAUSING THIS.WHATS WRONG AND WHAT SHOULD I DO?

I used to have an irregular period also, i would have it like twice a year and no cramps or bloating but then i began to have sexual intercorse with my boyfriend and decided because it would freak me out that i wasnt getting it every month i started on yaz wich regulated my period help me lose weight and get rid of acne. But you should really see an OBGYN to see what bc you need to regulate your period.

true... BC is used to regulate hormones to have a regular monthly period.. u should c an OBGYN and c which BC is right for u..

You should probably visit your gynecologist. My one friend had this same problem and she went to the doctor and they put her on birth control to make her periods more regular.

hi.. your period is irregular to begin with.. my sister in-law and a friend of mine has/had a similar situation.. they get periods once every 3 months when they're lucky or sometimes up to 6 months b4 they get it... a long and heavy periods with clots are normal to them coz the blood was piled up in their uterus so that's what happens when the uterine lining is trying to shed the blood out.. I'm not a pro but the best thing is if u or or parents have an insurance look at the back of the card and call the nurse line and she should be able to give u an advice... hope this helps
