I've been getting my period for over 2 years and my periods are still irregular, I don't know why. Also, how can I tell if my periods, light,heavy, etc. is their a certain amout of blood youre supposted to see when its light or heavy or regular?

Answer 1

i've been getting my period for almost 4 years now, and it's still irregular.

some of us just have irregular cycles, and some are lucky and know exactly when to expect their periods.

light periods are when theres hardly any blood, or very little.

heavy is when theres a lot. and you have to change your pad or tampon a couple times.

Answer 2

Irregular periods are normal until you're in your early twenties or late teens and your hormone levels stabilize. As for the flow it depends. Light is when you only have to change your pad/tampon a few times a day. Mine is sometimes so heavy I have to change it every hour or two and I have to have extra protection. (Often times the doc will put you on the pill if it's that bad.)

Answer 3

Well you have only had your period for two years and most young girls do have irregular periods. If you are having heavy periods, and you would know because you would be changing your pad or tampon every two hours or less. If your period being irregular is bothering you, Tell your parent and see if they would take you to the doctor. Birth control regulates your period and can give you shorter and lighter periods.

Answer 4

periods are very irregular. they vary from a few teaspoons to a few tablespoons.(roughly 30 ml) per period.......periods are unpredictable.  They suck!!!
