Specializes in Pediatrics

Already had one? : It is very normal for young women to have irregular periods when they first start until regular ovulation begins. This could take a year's worth of cycles or longer. Treat her symptoms with anti inflammatory medication such as aleve (naproxen) or ibuprofen.
