I am 18 years old and have never been sexually active or been on birth control. This being said, lately i have been late with my periods by months, usually about 5 months between periods. My mother had said that it was nothing to worry about but i don't like the uncertanty . Between these late periods, i have been getting yeast infections as well. I don't know what could be causing this or what to do. Any suggestions/answers?

Beeing this late between your periods is, I'm afraid, something to be worried about - five months is just too long time to pass. This could indicate that there is a problem either with your ovaries or your hormonal levels. Do you get PMS like symptoms during that time - like bloating, breast tenderness or mood swings? Those symptoms, together with this much irregularity in your menstrual cycle could point out to polycystic ovaries, a condition that is treatable, only you need to see a gynecologist and get examined.
