Women have many unique health concerns, such as menstrual cycles, pregnancy, birth control, menopausal issues and more. Women's health refers to the branch of medicine that focuses on the treatment and diagnosis and prevention of diseases and conditions that affect a woman's physical and emotional well-being.
LadyBug aims to empower women to take charge of their own health, and to have access to a reliable, all-encompassing platform to ask any women health related queries and get responses targeted to each individual and their unique circumstance by physicians. Other than asking questions, you may also read the experiences and journey other women went through, or even share stories yourself! There will also be monthly women articles posted - so do look out for that! Be a part of Women's Health by LadyBug space today!

Unfortunately this is a rather broad query and requires quite a detailed history and assessment by your doctor as to what the cause may be. In some women they have "naturally irregular mensus" i.e. no organic cause is found but if there is a problem e.g. Fibroids/endometriosis/hormonal imbalances, correcting these will often resolve your periods.
There is medication to take to make your periods more regular but I would not suggest taking them without consulting your doctor as it can affect your fertility and if you have significant risk factors, you may not be able to take it.
Hope this helps!
