I would ask your mom. I know that I did
and at first she assumed it was because I
was sexuallt active, but after I told her
it was for regulation and to make my
period lighter she kinda realized that it
wouldn't be a bad idea.
I'm not sure if your fam. Doctor can. I
was alwys told that you need to see a
gyno. Good luck!

I had irregular periods in the past (i
would get my period twice a month)
i went to the doctor on three different
occasions when this happened and all three
times were different doctors and they all
did the same thing.
They gave me birth control pills for three
months to regulate my period. Once it was
fine I stopped taking them and my periods
continued on regularly for about 2-3 years
and then I would have the same problem
again so I would just go back to the doc
and they would give me more pills again.
The never sent me to see a gynecologist,
although I asked to see one. They just
said to take the pills and if my period
came back to normal then I wouldn' have to
see the gynecologist (i think this was
because I had just gone to see the
gynecologist right before that each time)
i had irregular periods in
the past (i would get my period twice a
month)
poor girl! My periods are irregular but
less frequent.
Pinkie 25 b/c does regulate
periods....Speak with your doctor about it

I think i've had the worst experiences
with bleeding and nobody has ever given me
a definite answer. Around my fourth week
of pregnancy I started to bleed and it
continued on until about the 13-14 week
point. This was so scary since I was
bleeding every single day, but it has
finally stopped and I am so happy about
that.
Even though the doctors never gave me a
definite answer :(

I had three u/s with the big machines (the
ones everyone normally goes to) and three
with little ultrasound machines were they
couldn't really get a good pic of the baby
but could hear the heart beat.
They said the heart beat was strong and
the baby looked like it was still growing
accordingly so the only thing they said
one time was that it looked like there was
a small hole in the sac, the other thing
they said was some women have problems
with their plecenta so that could be it
but they couldn't see anything and didn't
know anything for sure.
I also had lots of blood drawn from me.
At first they checked for my hormone
levels and then to see if I had a negative
type blood. I don't know how many other
tests they did with my blood but I had
blood drawn out of me 5 times in one
day!!! They're crazy!!! I went to the er
three times because of really heavy
bleeding and each time they took so much
blood out!
