When I first got my period, it came in alternate months but became normal after a while even though I would miss two months or more(spread out, not one shot) of period in a year. I have never gotten my period in every 12 months before. WIthin a year, I'm sure to miss at least one month of period and get stains/light flow occasionally. But I guess this is considered normal since hormones change and everything.
I'm 20 now and this year is the weirdest. I missed my period in January and in feb it came normally. So far, normal stuff. But since feb till now, it's been abnormal. In Mar & Apr, my period was blackish and the flow was very light. I was worried because it was black 2 months in a row. In May, I was so relieved when my period came and the flow was more normal, although it was a darker colour of red, possibly because the previous months' were black and I thought maybe it was darker because it was shedding off what it didn't shed for 2 months. ANyway, when I thought my period was back to normal, last month it came as stains and is the same for this month. Light brown stains I just need to use a pantyliner. And it's not consistent. Just lasts for 3 days or so. I'm getting really worried as this is the most abnormal period I've had in a year before. In 7 months, I've only gotten 2 months of normal flow! I don't take birth control pills or have sex or etc, so I don't know what's the cause for this. It might be stress but I doubt stress would cause irregular flow for so long! And its not like I stress for 5 months in a row. I thought it would be back to normal this month but it still comes as stains. It sucks to wait for the next month just to see if it's a normal flow or not and if it isn't, I get more worried!! Please help! Answers would be very much appreciated.
