A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal variation: What you described is consistent with normal variations in menstrual periods. If you had unprotected sex since your last period, you may wish to do a home pregnancy test. 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.
