Irregular Menstrual Cycles

Irregular menstrual cycles refer to inconsistent timing or flow of periods, which can vary from month to month. Instead of a regular 28-day cycle, cycles may be shorter, longer, or unpredictable. Causes can include hormonal imbalances, stress, weight changes, medical conditions, or lifestyle factors. While occasional irregularity isn't usually serious, persistent irregularity might signal underlying health issues that require medical attention. Tracking your cycle and consulting a healthcare provider can help identify causes and determine appropriate treatment if needed.
