It depends: Irregular periods (at any age) warrant a careful investigation by your physician. This might be just the way your cycles are or it might a sign for an underlying condition. Please make an appointment to review with your gynecologist or primary care provider.

Get checked: Reasons for irregularity include weight gain or loss, breastfeeding, alcohol use, eating disorders, marked emotional stress, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, cervical polyps, polycystic ovarian syndrome, excessive exercise & pregnancy. When a girl has just started menstruating & around the time of menopause periods can be irregular.
