28 Dec07- 3 Jan08

As you can see, each month varies a great deal for the day my menses should arrive. So I'd never know if I could consider myself 'late'. I'd really like to know, are these variations normal, or could they be considered as 'irregular' cycles? Help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks.:confused: :(

And how old are you if I may ask

[alyssarox32]

It seems like you just have really long periods. I did notice that you'r menstral cycle is fairly short. I wouldn't say it is not normal but if you are so concerned about it, I suggest going to the doctor. Birth control might regulate you'r period as well. I believe you'r doctor will suggest that. My sister, who is 17, went 3 months without getting a period. Talk about nerve wrecking!

and how old are you if I may ask

I'm 20yrs old.

[wolfcandy2]

Ouch three months without... worse than pulling teeth without anesthetic

[alyssarox32]

Yea Im 20 as well. Every woman is different. Like I said, go to your primary care provider or gynecologist and have them check you out. Give him/her a written menstrual calendar like you posted on this site.

[wolfcandy2]

I agree with alyssa on this one

[alyssarox32]

wolfcandy2

Lol! Personally I would LOVE to go without it for 3 months. I think that pulling teeth out without anesthetic is worse than that.

[wolfcandy2]

All depends on the situation alyssa darlin,if you are with a guy he might get the wrong ideas and then what

[alyssarox32]

Im sorry I don't quit understand what you mean guys getting the wrong idea. Did we switch topics? Lol

[wolfcandy2]

Lol if you were with a guy and you did not get your monthly for 3 months he might get the pregnant idea darlin

Also, my last period was 28 Dec-3 Jan. which makes today the 32nd day right? I've only been crampy throughout this cycle and there's no sign of a period. Only a brownish discharge (not heavy). But definitely crampy,like those you get before or even during your period. They're just kind of mild and annoying. This has beensince my period ended.Any advice??

[wolfcandy2]

Im no dr and won't even give advice on it... I will say that you need to see a dr though

[alyssarox32]

Wolfcandy,

OHHH! I see what you mean now. Yes, you are right about that. If that were true then I would make sure to get a pregnancy test.

[wolfcandy2]

At least you see my point hun

[wolfcandy2]

Crysi Im a caring guy that wants everyone to be in good health,if you feel as its something wrong,then see a dr to confirm it or to see what's wrong

[alyssarox32]

I have averaged out your menstral cycle throughout the past 10 months as well as the length of each one:

Menstral- 26 days
Length- 7 days

In my opinion your periods are normal. There are women whose menstral cycle runs for what seems like forever. I have noticed that your cycle can last between 16 to 32 days and the length can vary from 4 days to 14. Brownish discharge means period your period is coming! Sometimes I don't cramp right before my period and sometimes not even all. I think you are pretty normal though. I REALLY suggest taking birth control. You will be so intact with your period it's not even funny.

[wolfcandy2]

Alyssa you are so correct with that... a kiss on your cheek...

[alyssarox32]

Well thank you!

[wolfcandy2]

Just flirting with you hun
