That's interesting to hear....when I first started menstrauing, it was on the dot always, but as I got older my period became more and more irregular. I finally after gaining several pounds and feeling incredible sick while in college, I went to a clinic and found out that I had masses in my uterus/ovaries. Of course, that set everything out of wack...but I can't say know if I know whether my periods are regular or not...at this moment I haven't had a complete period in months. However, I have always been bugged about my weight, teased about being anorexic, etc...but I am NOT. I don't believe that Dr. Braun ment his comments to be hurtful or sacastic...I think he is concern but I am hesitant to agree w/ his comment about being malnurished and that is why I replied to the post. Ladies, what do have to say? I am certainly interested and intrigued at this point....I should have asked my family doctor when I went for my college physical today! GRRRR!
