So I've had periods since I was 12. I'm now 15. Every single month until September 2010 my periods have been consistent. They were every month, came when they should have (I've tracked them since I've started), and lasted 5-7 days with the 1st and 2nd days being the heaviest.
In September of LAST year though, my period skipped. And it skipped January, too. I was thinking because of stress. Now (this month), my period has only lasted 2-3 days.. which is very odd for me since they've always lasted 5-7 days in the past. And the first and second days were always heavy. Very heavy. Now.. it's much lighter this month. And it's over already for this month. I started on Wednesday morning, by the way. Is that... normal? My doctor always tells me my period will be sporadic since I'm still young. But why would they suddenly be sporadic when they've been consistent for over 2 years straight? No, I'm not, and haven't been, sexually active. This is just odd to me.
So, my question is... is this... normal/what has happened with you? I know my doctor will just repeat it is since I'm "young." I've asked him twice, so I'm expecting the same answer... I'm just wanting a second opinion because I know general physicians definitely don't know everything..
Thanks for reading through this zig-zagged post. lol
