Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems Obgyns treat. If this is a one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections, polyps and hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test.
