Hi,

Please let me know if you are on some fertility medicines because they alter hormonal balances thus causing irregular periods.
No...It is not normal to have irregular periods after 30. You may have it at around 40 when you approach menopause.

You need a workup including USG (to rule out PCOD), tests for female hormone level, thyroid level and/or endometrial biopsy. If you are on progesterone,you will not get periods. Even if, you are pregnant, it supports pregnancy so continue it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
