okay I have a few concerns about my body:
1. the gap between my periods is never the same
detail: like, it will come after 28, then 35, then 32, 24, 21, 33, 38 etc. it's really random! I'm 16 and have had my period for just about exactly four years now. shouldn't it be pretty much settled by now, or at least only a few days off? I've never ever had it come with the same amount of days in between more than twice so I don't even know what regular is for me? I don't really have an issue with it as I get period pain about an hour before it comes so I have some warning, just want to know if it's normal or not
2. I have weird discharge
the discharge in my panties is gross. there's a fair bit of it and it smells (I'm not sure what exactly it smells like, it's not reeeeally fishy but it is a little bit), it's yellow like the colour of regular mozzarella or parmesan cheese (the type you get on pizza or pasta). I hate the smell of it and it worries me that other people might be able to smell it. I went to the doctors about it and she described it as 'offensive' in her notes which is definitely true but then she didn't do anything about it. does this mean I have nothing to worry about? I'm 16 and I feel really self conscious about going to the doctor because my mum asks me all these questions and I worry I'm overreacting so I can't really go again, and changing doctors is definitely out of the question.
3. I sweat. a lot. I shower every morning and use deoderant a couple of times throughout the day but I still sweat. even if it doesn't smell all that bad it still leaves sweat marks, what should I do?
4. my hair is really thick, dark and everywhere! legs and underarms doesn't worry me but my arm and even stomach hair (not just a line down from my belly button but EVERYWHERE), the gap between my boobs and on my boobs (not areolas) is really hairy. I can wax my stomach in bikini season but I can't really do my boobs because they aren't flat! lol. is it normal to have this much hair? I'm italian but no one in my family is really hairy.
if it helps, my stature is quite short. I am of perfect weight and I have perfect blood pressure according to the last time I got tested. I must have a pretty good metabolism because I eat heaps but am quite slight, my boobs are really small an A cup.
thanks for anything and everything! xx
