Teenage problem

	Asked by sasusaku (Female; UNITED KINGDOM ) on Sun 06, Jun 2010 02:47am
	Hello. I am a 16 year old girl & my period is irregular most months. I understand that this can be normal. The last week I have been getting a small amount of vaginal discharge, I have lost my appetite and I've been tired. My last period was in the week of around end of April, start of May and I am slightly late again. I am a virgin and I know it cannot be pregnancy, but whenever I search my symptoms it always points to it. please help I am really really worried!

	Answer by Dr.Bhumika Aggarwal (doctor) on Mon 07, Jun 2010 12:55pm: Hi, You could be having the irregular/ delayed periods due to stress, anxiety, hormonal disturbances, thyroid disorders, dietary changes, obesity, weight loss or weight gain. All of the above can lead to missed or irregular cycles. You would need medications to treat your condition depending upon the cause of your symptoms. It is important here that you see an OBG specialist and get a clinical examination and a ultrasound done and tests to rule out a vaginal infection. Regards.
