Hiya Dr Harper
Im 16 next month and iv been having my periods for coming up 4 years this year and the pains have just been getting worse as each on goes on!
iv been to my GP and she sent me to a Pediotritian (spelling)
and nobody has been able to find a cure (if thats the right way of putting it?)
they gave me tablets so im not so heavey but they were also ment to help for the pain but they did nothing for it.
I was just wondering if you had any suggestions?
Cheers. x

Hi
My husband get sever ulcers in his mouth and throat that are quite big. He get bouts of them at a time and can not swollow food or speak very much as they are so painful.
He has seen his GP and dentist a few times but they havnt come up with anything. He has had a blood test but nothing was shown. Any ideas on what causes them and how to treat them. Over the counter medications do not work as they are so bad.

Many Thanks

Hi, im 17 5ft 5 and 125pound, and started my period at 13 and i am still not regular like every month, it is roughly every 40 days though. However i do mark every 28 days in the calender so know where i am, however last month i was 10 days early from the 28 days mark and this month i am 15 days early, i do not get any pain before or during my period and i start off REALLY slow for the first few days, I was wondering if this was normal and i shouldnt worry about anything because of my age but i wasnt sure, if you could help or reasure me in some way that would be great thanks.
