Hi Anon,
Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community! It can be very confusing when periods are not on a regular schedule and are irregular.
For many women, it is common to have irregular periods. There are many things that can cause a period to be off schedule. Some causes include:
Here is a helpful article on EmpowHER that talks about common causes for irregular periods: https://www.empowher.com/menstrual-cycle/content/what-s-deal-irregular-periods.
Do any of those causes for irregular periods seem like they would apply to you?
It may also be a good idea to schedule an appointment with your doctor or gynecologist. You can talk to them about your irregular period and they can help provide advice and explain how to adjust your lifestyle for a more regular period.
I hope this helped! Please let me know if you have further questions.
Best,
