and if your over weight yes looseing weight can help

but if your drastticlly changeing your diet that could be why too

and genetics as well..

Answer 2

You should look up poly-cystic ovarian syndrome and see if any of the symptoms described fit you. This can cause irregular periods, and is caused by too much testosterone in your system. There are things you can do to help, such as lose weight as your doctor suggested. But if it is not controlled at an early age it can lead to fertility problems in the future. I'm not trying to scare you- just give you an idea of what it could possibly be.

It could be as simple as the fact that you are so young, and your body has just not regulated itself yet. There may be no cause for concern.

If your doctor thinks birth control is your best option- try it. I started BC when I was 17 because of heavy and irregular periods.

I hope this helped. Good luck!
