A member asked:
Why is my menstrual flow lighter and spottier each month? could it be stress, anxiety, or hormonal imbalance? i'm 23 and a virgin.

Light periods: Emotional stress can influence ovulation, which in turn will make your cycles irregular, with spotting. Consult your healthcare provider about using oral contraceptives, not for pregnancy protection, but to regulate your menstrual cycles, if there are no contraindications. Eczema is also related to stress.
