A member asked:

Im a 16 almost 17 female my my period skips 2-4ish months i got my period and i have had it for 3 weeks is that normal ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: This is not normal, but it is common for many women to have irregular menstruation. I recommend seeing a Primary Care doctor or a Women's Health doctor to discuss this. It puts you at risk for anemia (low blood levels from excess menstruation) and sometimes can be associated with risk for diabetes or obesity later in life, depending on the cause.
