You need to be seen by a GYN for an exam and evaluation of your irregular cycles. The trend I see on this board with the Drs. (as well as my own)...one cycle does not a problem make...more than a three cycles, it is time to see a Dr. I wouldn't think a couple of days here and there are too much out of range, but the 76 day cycle is a bit much.

It is recommended a woman start having GYN exams at the age of 18 or when she becomes sexually active, whichever occurs first. These should be continued on a regular basis~one year interverals, unless your MD feels otherwise.

Hope this helps. Robin
