Loong Periods

Ok, this is about my 13yr old.  I've already taken her to the Doctor and think i'll be taking her back. She's been having periods for about a year - not very long and I expected irregularities etc.


here's the problem;


1. she says her periods last 2 weeks then 2 weeks off then starts again. 


2. sometimes 30 days - length of period


3. Now she had one for 7 WEEKS, 2 days off then totally started again


4. blood tests negative for anemia but slightly outside the norm for thyroid - although she shows no signs of hypothyroidism - supposed to get retested.


Any thoughts?

Hi there,


Is there any history of problems in your family?
