Struggling with Irregular Periods? What You Need to Know

    June 19 , 2025

Irregular periods can be frustrating, confusing, and sometimes alarming. They might signal a minor hormonal shift or point to an underlying health issue that needs attention. If your menstrual cycle is unpredictable or significantly different month to month, you’re not alone—and help is available.

What Counts as Irregular?

Most women have a menstrual cycle that lasts between 21 to 35 days. If your cycle length varies widely, if periods are missed, unusually heavy, or very light, it’s considered irregular. Spotting between periods, prolonged bleeding, or going months without menstruation are also signs.


Possible Causes of Irregular Periods:

  • Hormonal imbalances (including thyroid disorders)
  • Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
  • Excessive stress or sudden lifestyle changes
  • Significant weight loss or gain
  • Over-exercising
  • Uterine fibroids or other reproductive conditions
  • Perimenopause

    Each of these causes has different implications and treatment options. That’s why identifying the root cause is essential.


    Why You Shouldn't Ignore It

    While occasional irregularity isn’t uncommon, consistent menstrual disruptions may affect your fertility, hormonal balance, and long-term reproductive health. They can also be signs of more serious health concerns.
