I missed my period for about 3 months. Recently over the last year I’ve been getting my period every other month and it would be very heavy for about half of it and I would also have debilitating cramps. I used to get it very month with a day of heavy bleeding and very little cramps. Now that I have it for the first time in about 3 months, it’s been extremely heavy and the cramps are just as bad if not worse. Is this something I should talk to my doctor about? Is it possible that birth control could help to regulate my period? I’ve never seen a gynecologist (I’m only 16).
