What is a menstrual cycle and why should you know your own cycle?
The menstrual cycle is a bodily change that occurs every month, affecting the reproductive system and overall health. Understanding the menstrual cycle helps women monitor their health and detect abnormalities more quickly.
How to calculate your own menstrual cycle
- Count from the first day of this period to the first day of the next cycle.
- Typically, the menstrual cycle is 28-35 days, but for some, it may be shorter or longer.
- Using a menstrual tracking application can help make calculating the cycle easier.
Menstrual cycle abnormalities to observe
- Irregular periods or missing periods for several months
- Excessive menstrual bleeding or periods lasting more than 7 days
- Severe abdominal pain affecting daily life
- Spotting between periods
If you notice these abnormalities, you should see a doctor for diagnosis as it may be related to hormonal imbalances or other health issues.
