Hi Anon - Thanks for your question and for sharing your information. You've obviously given this a lot of thought, and it's good to see that you are also having ongoing discussions with your mom.
It's common and normal for young women to have irregular periods. When we are stressed, it has an impact on our hormones. Those changes in hormones can also impact our periods, including when we have them. So you've got a couple of factors that could be contributing to your cycle timing being off.
It's good that you're seeing your doctor soon. Also, keep talking to your mom, she knows what she's talking about, and seems very supportive.
