For someone who is 15, that is nothing odd. It takes a while for the body to get in to the groove of this whole ovulation/menses thing. :-) If it bothers or worries you, you can always go on HBC. If you don't like that option, just look at the usual culprits for irregularity; stress, erradic or poor nutrition, BF% too high, BF% too low, thyroid issues, lack of sleep, PCOS, etc. Some of those you can influence with help/education, some you can influence with the help of a doctor, some you just really can't do much about. If you don't like the herbal medicine they've given you (usually those are phto estrogens, red raspberry leaf powder, and some other various "womanly" herbs), you can always try changing things around with your nutrition (add a multi, make sure it has iron!) and exercise levels first (+ or - depending on where you're at now), and see if those help, before going on the medicine. :-)
