Well just remember that this is a part of a woman's life has messed up as it may be. I would not talk to you MD at this point about finding ways to stop you menstrual cycle considering your age but give it a year or so and there are many options for you. There are now pills and shots that stop a female from having periods. Some light bleeding may occur on occasion. However at 16 you are growing hormonally and I would suggest you bring it up to you doctor. You don't want to stunt your hormonal grow at this time considering your age.
