Menstruation

it's unusual, but doesn't have to mean that there's something wrong.

Some women experience some spotting at ovulation. If you had unprotected sex in the days leading up to the 14th day, you could be pregnant. Have a test done if your period doesn't come or you had unprotected sex and are worried.

It is fairly normal, as teenagers periods are not always regular because their hormones have not fully regulated yet. However, if she has had sex, she should take a pregnancy test. If she hasn't had sex, it might be worth going to see a doctor to check everything is OK, which it probably is. It is probably caused by stress, anxiety, tiredness, travelling, illness or not eating properly.

omg that is soooo bad. you have a disease

Yes, it does. "last couple of days" does mean "last two days" ^^

It means that your periods may be slihtly irregular, it is very common for this to happen. Otherwise, you might be pregnant, but i think you will know if you are :L

Yes. Hormones are what regulates the menstrual cycle.

Sometimes. Every girl is different and unique in their own way. Some girls get their periods the same time their mom did and some just get their period on their own time. Little sisters may get their period the same time their big sister got her's, but it depends. So yes, sometimes girls get their periods the same time their mom did or a close relative. (sister, mom aunt, grandmother, ect.)

Ovarian cysts can most definitely cause irregularities in your muenstral cycle. It might cause some pain during the cycle, as well. If the problem persists, you may want to schedule a check-up with an OBGyn to further examine the cause of irregularity.

Depending on how "late" you are...... It may simply mean that your period is late. The body doesn't run like the clock on your wall. If your following period does not start when it should have....... Go see your doctor to get checked out.

Yes. If you keep taking them and ignore the pause days you'll suppress the regular bleeding. Don't make a habit out of it though.

Blame it on pheromones. Even if you're not conscious of it, they're working.

Yes its fine, periods start anywhere between ages 9-17. Trust me, I'm also 11 and have my period. It's absolutely normal.

Yes. At the beginning or the end of the cycle. If it's brown for the entire time, you may have a vitamin deficiency (iron). Check with a doctor. It could be a sign of something else.

Black vaginal discharge sounds like it could well be your period. If not, you need to go and see a doctor

1.Stress

Stress can affect many things in our lives, including our periods. Sometimes we're so stressed out that our body decreases the amount of a hormone (GnRH), which causes us to not ovulate or menstruate. Working with your doctor or midwife can help you figure out what you need to do to relax and get back on schedule. This can sometimes take a few months or more to work itself out.

2.Illness

A sudden, short illness or even a longer illness can cause your periods to be delayed. This is usually temporary. If you think this is the reason that your period is late, talk to your practitioner about when they expect your period to return.

3.Change in Schedules

Changing schedules can really throw off your body clock. This is particularly true if you go from days to nights at work or vice versa. If you frequently change shifts and notice a problems with regular cycles, then see if it is possible to be put on a more permanent shift or at least a shift that only varies after a lengthier time period.

4.Change in Medications

Perhaps you're trying a new medication and a delayed or absent period is the cause. Be sure to talk to your doctor or midwife about this side effect. It is very common with some methods of birth control. If you change medications, be sure to ask what effects this may have on your period. This is true, even if you don't think that there will be a big change.

5.Being Overweight

Carrying around too much weight can hormonally shift your cycles and even stop them. Most women will see a return to normal cycles and fertility with the loss of some weight, even if they are still considered overweight.

6.Being Underweight

If you do not have enough body fat you will not have regular periods, sometimes you can eve cause your periods to stop all together. This is called amenorrhea. Typically a weight gain will help you have your periods return. This is a frequent cause of a missed period in women who work out to an extreme or are professional athletes.

7.Miscalculation

The menstrual cycle varies from woman to woman. While we say that the average menstrual cycle is 28 days long, that is not true for everyone. Sometimes our period is believed to be late when in all actuality we have simply miscalculated. If you have irregular menstrual cycles, but know when you ovulate, look for your period about two weeks after you ovulate. That may help you keep an easier track of your periods.

8.Peri-Menopause

Peri-menopause is the period of time where you are transitioning from reproductive age to a non-reproductive age. Your periods may be lighter, heavier, more frequent or less frequent - but mostly just not normal. If you do not wish to get pregnant, be sure to continue to use birth control because you are likely to still be fertile at least some of the time.

9.Menopause

Menopause is when you have reached the point in your life where you will no longer ovulate or menstruate. Menopause can be a natural life event or may happen surgically through hysterectomy or through chemical such as various forms of chemotherapy.

10.Pregnancy

Finally! Yes, your missed period might be because you're pregnant! A simple pregnancy test can usually help you determine if you have missed your period because you are pregnant. The urine pregnancy tests and blood pregnancy tests look for the hormone hCG.

What to do next?

If you are pregnant, you should call to make a prenatal appointment with your midwife or doctor. It normally takes a bit to get you in so call right away.

If you have taken a pregnancy test and it is negative. Most tests advise you to wait another week and retest. If the second test is negative or if you have a good idea of why your period is missing, then you can and should call the doctor or midwife sooner for a physical exam. They may also do blood work and can sometimes prescribe medications to help bring on a tardy period, like Provera.

about three days into your 'white' section of your pills is still normal

no, capitalize the letter and put a period after it.

If you want a good stomp pad, get the Burton pad. Burton is very reliable and possibly the best brand of snowboards in the world. Its stomp pad has worked for me for 2 years, and it still has a lot of grip. You can't go wrong with a Burton stomp pad. However, there is a new stomp pad that is especially good for beginners called "Strap Pad," that is the only stomp pad that has a velcro strap that eases your ride on and off the chair lift. See strappad.com. It was considered one of the "Best New Products" at the 2009 SIA show.
