Glossary Menstrual Regularity

consistent timing of menstrual cycles, typically every 21-35 days

Menstrual Regularity, also known as Menstrual Cycle Regularity or Regular Periods, refers to the consistent occurrence of menstrual cycles at predictable intervals, typically every 21 to 35 days. This regularity indicates that the hormonal and reproductive systems are functioning properly, which is important for overall reproductive health. Irregular cycles can be a sign of underlying health issues such as hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or thyroid disorders.
