Anemia: Anemia can be due to many things, including bleeding, poor nutrition, chronic illness, or systemic problems like renal failure. If you are anemic, it is important for you and your doctor to figure out why, and take steps to correct it.

Options: An occasional off month is common and does not usually indicate a problem. If it continues see your obgyn for an exam and testing. Depending on your age and fertility plans there are lots of treatment options. Birth control pills can regulate your cycle. Mirena (levonorgestrel) iuds can minimize your periods. Lysteda is a great new hormone free drug used to stop heavy periods.
