Hi Hallie. I don't know how old you are, but once I had my period for 5 years (I was 15 by then) and it was still incredibly out of whack (like I could have two periods 2 weeks apart or 2 periods 4 months apart) I got put on birth control to control it, and it works of course because it forces your period to be within a certain week. I have been off b/c for about.. 6 or 7 years now and I'm still pretty regular, (not perfect, but I don't think anyone is) my periods are still really short (only 3 days, which started on b/c!), and I never get cramps, which I did before b/c too.

It pretty much saved my period lol so I would recommend talking to your doctor about that option. Also, for me I tried generic vs name brand b/c and generic made me SO exhausted beyond belief and name brand did not. Odd?
