I am a 22-year-old medical student and know that normal cycle length varies between 28 to 35 days. My cycle however is around 40 days and sometimes more or less..
The question is, can that be normal? I'm a little overweight but not obese, I exercise regularly and I don't think I have any obvious signs of PCO.
Any help?
I have irregular period cycle. Ave period length is 2 weeks, with 2-3 weeks "break" in between. It causes my calendar to mess up (we're trying to conceive). Is this menstrual cycle normal? Any advice re timing?
It would be quite difficult to determine if you are pregnant. While the average menstrual cycle is typically 28 days, a normal menstrual cycle ranges from 21-35 days for adults and 21-45 days for young teens.
However, if you have had unprotected sex and feel you could be pregnant, take a home pregnancy test.
and yes planb can mess up your cycle since your body has an internal menstrual cycle..
s reports of the usual length of their cycle. The women reported usual cycle lengths as short as 19 days and as long as 60 days, with 28 days being the most common. We found substantial correlation between usual cycle length at enrolment and day of ovulation (follicular phase length) during the study (R=0.55, all cycles). Thus, self reported cycle length can be useful in predicting whether a woman is in her fertile window.
Since itll take my body some time to adjust frim coming off the pill, I wont know what my normal cycle will be..so when I downloaded this app I kind of guessed what my cycle length would be.i was off by a few days and want to change the info I put in when I signed up. Is this even possible?? I hoped it would let me change the info any time so that i can better predict when i am most fertile. Anyone else have the same problem??
s cycles can vary and so can the length of their menstrual cycles. 5 days is a normal amount of time for a period, even when you usually have a 7 day cycle. Sometimes, due to stress and other factors, your cycles can vary by a few days. It does sound like you had a menstrual cycle from the information you have given. If you are unsure, you can take a urine pregnancy test. You can also follow-up with your doctor for a blood test to confirm whether you are pregnant or not.
for a lot of us. The length of your menstrual cycle can change from month to month for many different reasons, for example: if you are stressed about anything; changes in hormone levels; dietary changes; have experienced an illness recently; changes in medication or birth control, and so on... The average menstrual cycle is supposedly 28 days long (from the 1st day of your last period, to the 1st day of your next period), but often that's not typical for every woman.
A woman with a light period is not gaining much thickness in her endometrial lining during the early part of the menstrual cycle. This is usually an indication that estrogen levels are lower than normal. If estrogen levels are low, progesterone levels are likely to also be low and a woman may or may not ovulate with her cycles.
