Gardasil Shot & Period Irregularities: Is It Normal?

Question
Hi, my name's Adara. I'm 14 years old and just got my second gardasil shot on 4-26-10. I started my period on the first of April, and i just started it again today on 4-28-10. is this normal? or should i be worried. This hasn't ever happened before....please reply soon!

Answer
Hi Adara,
Since your period started 27 days after the last one started, that sounds pretty normal to me.  Most 14 year old girls won't have perfectly regular periods, and sometimes will have quite irregular periods.  I wouldn't be worried.  Lots of things can affect your periods, especially stress.  Usually they resolve with time.  Best wishes.
