A member asked:

How can you suspect pregnancy if you have irregular periods?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It's difficult: It's really hard with irregular periods. If you have irregular cycles, it can also make it harder to conceive, predisposes to miscarriage, increases the risk of pregnancy complications, and ups the odds of health problems. See a board certified reproductive endocrinologist who is specially trained in this. Good luck!
