A member asked:
Is it bad for my periods to get more spread out and lighter after being on a normal cycle? they are becoming more infrequent and shorter. (i'm 16)

Teenage periods: It is very common for women your age to have very irregular cycles even after being normal for awhile. This has to do with the hormones produced by the brain. We can regulate them with birth control if you desire.
