Teenager. Irregular And Heavy Periods Since 2 Months. Safe To Start With Pill To Regularise Periods?
I'm a 16 year old girl, every time I get my period I write it down in my Calender so I know when I'm due for my next one, I've never had problems with them they use to be on time and only last 3-4 days but the last couple of months I have been getting them all over the place sometimes I can get them 2 weeks before I'm due or a week late. and they are lasting about 6 days and they can be really heavy. I'm thinking about going on the pill for it so that I don't get them ? is that safe?
