Hi. I started my period around the age 13, 7th grade. Im 18, almost 19, and I've never been regular but I'm not sure what is happening is normal or not. Before I had about 4-5 months between my periods then it went to about 3-4 for a bit and then to 3-2 for only a few times. I figured I was getting more to a schedule with my period but then it jumped to a 4 month gap and now its been 11th months and I just got my period today.
When I do get my period its heavy and last 6-7 days, I wear overnight pads even in the day because its more comfortable for me. I always have really bad cramps the first 3 or 4 days and usually end up missing school. I usually have a small clot a day but nothing major. Weeks up to my period I usually have terrible stomach pains and cramps and whenever I eat it makes it worse.
When I got my period today I only had really bad cramps for the past 2-3 days and then suddenly my period is here with bad cramps, really heavy flow and with a lot of big clots which I can actually feel. I figure this is from me not having my period for so long but I'm not sure.
At a check-up with the doctor she took some blood and did limited testing for it, I think for hormone/estrogen levels or something like that, I'm not sure. This was when I was around the 4th month out of the 11. The doc said if I still am missing my period I could get more testing done, but I havent been back yet. The blood sample came back normal.
