Irregular Periods
I'm 17 & have recently began having irregular periods. Ive had a regular menstrual cycle since I was 12. Until about 10 months ago. Now, I only get a periods every 3 months. Even then, it's light and brief. I'm oblivious as to what could have caused this. I'm overweight but have been since I was 12, when I began having regular cycles. I also masturbate frequently but I have been for 2 years and it hasnt affected anything. I'm concerned if I can have kids and if I can have a regular cycle again.
