I had my first period when I was 11 years old and it was regular for one year. Between ages 12 and 17 it was irregular with periods every 1 to 1.5 months. In high school it became more irregular and the doctor said it is normal during high school due to study stress. After high school the same problem existed till now. I am 27 years old and I still have periods every 2 to 3 months and sometimes it is more. I used pills before and they work but I gain weight (not from eating) and sometimes if I use them for more than two consecutive cycles I start having short breaths and get tired very quick. I have tried different medications but all will have side effects such as vomiting and dizziness. I had checked for hormones, ovarian cysts,..etc. and everything looks OK. My height=5’2” and my weight is 162 lb. I have a healthy diet and even though I gain weight when I do not use pills and do not have a period. I am trying to conceive now and would like to have a regular period. Please Help.

I am a 16 year old girl who has had some ovary problems in the past. I get cysts this time of year. The last cyst was said to be massive. About a week ago I started to have abdominal pains, so I went to urgent care. They said I had vaginiosis and a yeast infection. On valentine’s day I got my period but it was extremely light and only lasted two days which is unusual for me. I am going through some med changes for my schiziod affective disorder but that happened last month. Last month I started to have back pains… but I had a back injury when I was a cheerleader. Also from my meds and hospitalisations I have gained about 70 pounds.I read that weight gain as a teen can cause Ovarian Cancer before meneopuase. I have other symptoms too such as nausea, loss of appitite, abdominal pains (as I wrote earlier as well as back pains), dizziness, bloating and frequently going to the bathroom. I’ve also been crying from the pains and I don’t get cramps with my peroid. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with me?

So, several months ago i went to the doctor and got diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. It hasn’t gone away and the amount of symptoms has increased alot. I went on birth control but it isn’t helping. i have the following symptoms:

pressure, fullness, or pain in the abdomen
dull ache in the lower back and thighs
problems passing urine completely
weight gain
painful menstrual periods and abnormal bleeding
nausea or vomiting
breast tenderness

and then it said
If you have these symptoms, get help right away:

pain with fever and vomiting
sudden, severe abdominal pain
faintness, dizziness, or weakness
rapid breathing

and i have everything but the rapid breathing. my problem is that my mom won’t let me go anywhere to get this checked out to see what i should do. so do you think maybe going to the school nurse would help me to get this checked out further? also, any advice on what i should do? (i’m in 9th grade)
