How to regulate irregular menstruation in a 15-year-old girl

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
It's just that a few days before my period, it was yellowish-brown, and on the eighth day, it was watery-looking, besides the clots. How should a 15-year-old girl regulate her menstrual cycle?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: The girl is in the stage of sexual maturation, and the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis has not yet fully developed. Although she has started menstruating, she does not ovulate and only produces estrogen, which leads to the proliferation of the endometrium. However, the estrogen levels are very low, causing the endometrium to stop fibrosis and shed, resulting in peeling. Therefore, some girls may have menstruation followed by several months before the next period, sometimes showing irregular shedding, and sometimes after a short period of amenorrhea, the shedding lasts much longer. This is the reason for menstrual disorders in young girls.
