I'm 23 years old and had my first period when I was 12. It's always been irregular (skipping a month here and there) but I had gone to the doctor years ago and they said it was okay (the women in my family tend to have irregular cycles) this month not only did I get my period early, it's lasted 10 days now! It usually only lasts 4-5 days so this is extremely unusual. It's also a heavy flow. I haven't been able to go to classes, can't study, and I can barely get out of bed without feeling horrible. Anyone have any suggestions!
