trying to get pregant

[nirah]

im 19 since i have been maybe 13 or 14 my period have been very strange.
it doesnt come every month like it should it just pops up when ever it wants to.
it never comes on the same day of whatever month. it last for about 3-5 days
sometimes shorter and sometimes longer. i know im young but i have been trying
to figure out my ovaly cycle but its hard when my cycle isnt steady. i dont have
medicad or anythin to see a doctor so u have been wondering how do i know if i cant
get pregant or not.

I track my cycles on this site and on mymonthlycycle.com b/c it gives just a little bit more detail.
But I agree with kiwi....the most important thing is your health and your baby's. You need insurance and health care and if that's not a priority then maybe babies should wait. Not sure of your situation but in my situation....deciding on whether to start TTC with my husband took a lot of consideration.

If can't afford insurance, how will you afford a baby?

i have done that my last period was aug. 18th for 4 days. before that my period was june 12th for 5 days and the one before that was feb. 10th for 5 days.. i kno i need insurance but its hard when i cant really afford it right now

Use a calendar and whenever your period starts, put a red circle in one of the corners. For every day you bleed, mark it with a small red circle on your calendar. Do this for three months and see if there is any consistency. You can also use online calendars to chart your cycles.

I used to have 2-day periods and that's actually fine and even normal. So it isn't the length of the period (unless it becomes excessive, as in 2 weeks of non-stop bleeding).

And finally I would suggest getting health insurance if you are able because if you do become pregnant you'll need healthcare.
