Hormonal imbalance: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD. Consult this site for more information on this topic. http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.

Many things...: Cramping is a very non-specific symptom. The list of things that can cause them is long. For example, an infection in the uterus, gas in your bowels, an ovarian cyst, Gastroenteritis.... lots of things. They may go away on their own. But if they are persistent or severe, you should see a doctor. Best wishes!
