What are reasons for a missed period and weird, light bleeding in between (not a pregnancy question)?

I’ve had my period for many many years, and have been regular for about four years now, so this was a bit weird for me.

have you started taking birth control or a different form of it recently? If so it could have caused a hormonal imbalance causing your period to be extremely light. I would go see a doctor about it if it that isnt the case though because something serious might be happening to your body

I haven’t been on any sort of birth control or anything different, I guess I shall have to visit my doctor then :) thanks.

sometimes it could be caused by a drastic weight gain or loss, stress, hormonal fluctuations, v*ginal dryness or infection in their can cuz it.

missed period? have had similar before. not pregnancy. see the doctor, you would be given some birth control pills to regulate it. its nothing to worry about

I had spotting at some stage due to a spastic colon causing issues. Many things can cause the problems including stomach problems and hormonal fluctuations (it isn’t uncommon to have at least some sort of spotting throughout your teen years).

I used to miss my period often then get it every two weeks, it was all over the shop! Plus it was way too heavy for a girl my size and age so I went on the pill to regulate it. If you’ve had your periods for a while, like over a year or more, maybe you should consider the pill to help get it on the right track.
