A member asked:

My periods 9 days early and very heavy. i have a totally regular cycle, and have done for 11 years. should i be worried, i'm 22.

Menses irregular: This happens to many women without its having significant negative connotations. Relax and do not worry unless this becomes a consistent phenomenon. If it recurs see an ob/gyn doctor.
