Hello and thank you for sharing your question.

Having periods closer together than 27 days is irregular and can be dangerous if the bleeding is very heavy.  Heavy bleeding can cause anemia which makes you feel weak and even nauseous.

If you have not had a regular pap smear or pelvic exam, you may want to get one.  It may be something as simple as hormonal imbalances or something more serious.  If it is hormonal, doctors usually recommend taking birth control pills to regulate, but there are also holistic treatments you can do such as different kinds of tea.
