you should talk to a doctor or a gynecologist, they can test you for a hormonal imbalance. in the meantime, (if you have your period now that is) i would wear large absorbency tampons and change them very frequently, and wear a pad as backup.
It is normal if it is normal for you! I had heavy periods for years, but only every few months. I didn't really regulate until the last few years in my later twenties. If it is a big problem, get on some birth control pills. These will regulate your cycle and make the periods lighter.
Just about anything can be "normal" when it comes to beginning your period.
You might want to ask your mom if you could check with a doctor. He/she can prescribe birth control pills - even if you're not sexually active, and no it's not an excuse to become sexually active! - they help regulate you. You don't necessarily have to take them for a long time, just to get your period more regular. Ask your mom; let her know how bad it's been.
thats not really normal if its going through your pads and underwear ... i would talk to a doctor =\ you could have a hormone imbalance... and also you said you get it once every 3 or 4 months? definitely see a doctor.
