I'm 14 and I started my period when I was 12, but I have my period every three weeks instead of every month, and I don't have it for a week, it goes for three days, stops completely for a day, then goes again for another day or two, I never have cramps, or bloating, or mood changes at all, and I recently started having sex with my boyfriend, and now I still have my period every three weeks, but it goes for a full five or six days now, can someone please explain why my period is so bizzar? And why it suddenly changed when I became sexually active?
I am suffering with anal fissures and sometimes use a dilute solution of sodium bicarbonate to clean with since it neutralizes the acid from the bowel movement. I follow this with a rinse of water to remove the solution.
