Answer #1

There are many different reasons. If it has only been recently you have to consider pregnancy or stress (just as Meganhead said)

otherwise it could be a health problem. Make sure you have your smear every 3 years (that goes for all of us ladies!) They may be horrible, invasive, and downright icky, but they can save your life!
Ask your doctor to test for PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome). Other symptoms of this include unusual hair growth (on the chin or upper lip), difficulty loosing weight and putting it on readily, acne, skin tags (tiny random flaps of skin), depression, dark skin patches and diabeties. Endometriosis can also cause screwed up periods and severe pain in the abdomen as well as depression.

There are other causes, if you are worried, talk to your doctor. If you suspect either of these conditions talk to your doc ASAP

Answer #2

you hardly have a period ever or just in the recent months? if it’s just recently, stress can definately change your cycles, but you might want to go to your dr anyway. if you are not on birth control already, it can help regulate your cycles. the only time mine have ever been like you described is when I was pregnant.
