LONG PERIOD, TEMP. REMEDY UNTIL GYNO?

by SuperNovaGirl, Nov 20, 2007 04:15AM
I posted this somewhere else, but i want to make sure i get plenty of advice on this..

my little sister has been having irregular periods since about august/september.
They last for about 10-20 days. then stop for a bit, 'and start right back on. She swears its because a few summers ago she didn't bleed from june til about sept. They are not heavy at all. She changes her pad about 2 maybe 3 times a day. She says she has reg. clots. not round...kinda long.  I told her that she should go see a gyno, but she's deathly afraid. She's 19 years old. Had her period since she was maybe 11 or 12. I'm very scared for her, is there anything I can tell her to do while she waits for the gyno apt I made for her?  Thanks to all who help.
