Is it normal for a 17 year to have a regular period for couple of months then not?

Yes, it could be. I have had this problem before. But if you are dealing with any dieting or weight issues, particularly if you consider yourself to be overweight even when others tell you that you are thin, then it is important at least to run this by your primary care physician. Variations in menses due to weight changes can indicate some serious medical problems. This isn't meant to alarm you, but to inform you about something that is important to know.

What do if you have your period and you need pads but your mom is on vacation and you do not want your other famliy members to know?

A. Use Toilet paper (doesn't work for long)

B. Before this ever happens, have an emergency kit (just in case)

C. Tell a family member. If you have any family members that you trust, tell them. Or if your dad is around tell him its a "GIRL personal emergency." He'll most likely know what you mean.

What happens if you start taking the pill before your period starts if you only want to skip your period?

Why am I bleeding during or after sex when I'm not on my period. I think I might be pregnant because this is not the first time I've had sex?

That has happened to me before and I was not pregnant but every woman is different so maybe you should go to the doctor just to make sure you are not. This also might be a good idea so that he/she can advice you on why this happened or prevent it from happening in the future. In my case it was because I had not had intercourse in a while. Hope this helps.

Can you put in a tampon when your period is light?

It depends how 'light' your flow is.

Tampons can't be worn with light flow because with less blood tampons will absorb more vaginal discharge so cause vaginal tearing that allows bacterial toxins to enter the bloodstream, which can lead to toxic shock syndrome - less blood means more drying, thus more damage and higher risk.


If you use a light tampon and is it not saturated with blood after 4-6 hours then your period is not heavy enough to use tampons and you need to switch back to using pads. You can also use menstrual cups or softcups with light flow as they don't pose risk of TSS like with tampons.

What could be wrong with someone who is urinating more than usual and seem to be having greenish yellow discharge?
