Possible PCOS: Period more than 35 days apart is not considered normal. One of the cardinal features of Polycystic Ovarian Cysts (PCOS) is Oligomenorrhea (infrequent periods). It is also associated with excess androgen which can manifest itself as acne, hirsutism, and other symptoms. See your clinician for an exam, lab testing, and appropriate treatment. Take Care
