Dear Dr. N, I am having irregular periods and have been told to cycle with the birthcontrol pills as treatment. Are there other options?

Dear S…. There are many causes for irregular periods, and birth control pills are one way to cycle. I think this should have a thorough evaluation first. There are then natural progesterones that can be used or it may not be necessary if you have cycles at least every 60 days. It is important that your questions be fully answered before you start a treatment plan? You may need to get more questions answered. Sorry for the delay in answer, tech problems. Good Luck!! Dr. N
