I am 17 and for the past 3 months I have been having 2 heavy periods.. One will start at the first of the month and last for 5-7 days and then the second would happen toward the end of the month and last 5-7 days. Im not on birth control. I have mood swings all threw the month. I get depressed cause of it . I dont know whats wrong with me. I have currrently moved so I dont have a doctor yet. Im scared. Also I dont know if this could have something to do with it, but cancer runs in my family on both sides with the females and they all found out they had it around my age. I am scared cause idk the type of cancer but if they dont catch it in time they have to do a full hestorictime or whatever its called. Someone please help me and give me some advise Please.
Go to the doctor! If you tell them whats going on they could have more legitimate ideas than random people on the internet!! And they will be able to run blood tests to see if its just high hormone levels, or pregnancy. (You CAN have periods while pregnant!) But they will be able to give you advice on other specialists to see or things you can do. (Including birth control to regulate your periods.) Although it could be stress from it being the end of the school year, or if you're on medications.
*you don't actually have a period, but some women have vaginal bleeding.
