Hi!

I am a 19 year old girl, not sexually active or on birth control, but I have been having what I think are irregular periods. I don't know if I am over reacting though and it is actually all normal!

My longest cycle was 47 days (a year ago), and my previous have been 29 days, 31 days, 26 days, 23 days, 39 days, 30 days and currently 41 days (and no period yet). They have also become pretty light compared to how they were a couple of years ago (and they also always used to be 32 days without adjusting.

They are not at all painful, just light. I get severe bloating most of the time too, although not sure if that is related?

Could be something and nothing but I would appreciate any advice about whether I should get this checked further, or what it could be!

    Go see a doctor about your hormones. You may have an imbalance with them. I started noticing my periods being light and showing up at different times. And now I'm having one that's lasted almost two weeks. I was scared to go to the doctor but she was very helpful and I've had a blood test but she wants me to get checked out for possible polycystic ovary syndrome also. Do not let the doctors dismiss that everything is fine. if it's not normal for you then keep persisting. it'll put your mind at ease.
