I am 17 years old and when i first started my period in 09 i don't have regular periods. is it bad to go 3-5 months without a period?

Not Really: Physically, having irregular periods should not be harmful.Particularly if you feel well.There are hormonal irregularities that may be a factor and relate to other issues such as wieght problems, fertility etc.So check with your doctor.
