No. Many women monitor their menstrual cycles with basal body temperature (BBT) charts to find out when they ovulate. This involves taking your temperature when you awake each morning, before you get out of bed, while your temperature is at its lowest for the day. When you ovulate, your basal body temperature typically rises about half a degree Fahrenheit. In other words, ovulation might affect your body temperature, however your menstrual cycle wouldn't. I hope this answer helps you.

Can change in weather affect menstrual cycle?
No, a change in the weather cannot affect the menstrual cycle. The menstrual cycle is controlled by hormones in your body, not by the weather.
How do you know the next time you get your period?
You determine when your period is due based on your average menstrual cycle length - the number of days between your periods. The average menstrual cycle length is 28 days so if you're new to menstruation it's best to just assume your period will start roughly the same time every month - although irregular cycles are normal at first, so don't worry if your period doesn't show up every month. Once you've had your periods for a while you can determine your own average menstrual cycle - count the days between your periods, this is one cycle, then figure out the average of your last 6 cycles by adding all these days together then deviding by 6. Cycles change all the time so you may have to re-calculate this sometimes, or you can use various web sites or applications to calculate this for you. Many women use something called Fertility Awareness Method to keep track of their periods, with this method you record your basal body temperature, cervical changes, cervical mucus, and other bodily changes to determine exactly where you are in your menstrual cycle. Figuring out your average menstrual cycle length just gives you a rough estimate of when your period is due, where as FAM tells you exactly when it is due. You can also tell when your periods are due based on changes happening to your body - your body will change in many ways throughout your menstrual cycles; physically, emotionally, and mentally. This effects every woman a little differently so there may be signs unique to you, but all women will experience some of the same symptoms - for example cramps, breast swelling, and changes to your discharge. For example around 2-3 weeks before your period you will get clear stretchy wet discharge like egg-whites, from then up until menstruation discharge will then get thicker and more lotion-like. It's best when you're young to just make sure you always carry supplies with you, periods can be irregular up until adulthood so until your cycles are regular and predictable it's best to always be prepared. Pay attention to your body, changes throughout your menstrual cycles will tell you when your periods are due.
Can you feel menstrual fluid drip out?
Yes, you can feel menstrual flow leaving your body. It's just the same as with discharge, you can feel the fluid leaving your body - menstrual flow is often heavier and warmer than discharge.
Is a 60-day menstrual cycle normal?
While there is no such thing as a "normal" menstrual cycle, 60 days is terribly long. I suspect that instead of a long cycle, what you are actually experiencing is intermittent ammenorrhea where you fail to ovulate or bleed at regular intervals. Many women who have anovulatory cycles will still bleed at regular intervals due to the progesterone drop they experience after the body attempts ovulation. In your case, it seems that when you fail to ovulate, you fail to bleed as well. Many women have occasional anovulatory cycles. I recommend that you begin charting your basal body temperature over a period of time in order to see if you are ovulating or not, and if you are, what percentage of cycles are ovulatory. Short of an ultrasound, charting BBT is the simplest way to tell if you ovulated in a cycle. That being said, you should probably see a doctor to rule out a more serious explanation than occasional anovulation.
What are two important functions of the ovaries?
The ovaries have two functions: they produce eggs (also called ova) and female hormones. The size of each ovary is about 1.5 inches long. Each month, during the menstrual cycle, an egg is released from one ovary. The egg travels from the ovary through a fallopian tube to the uterus. The ovaries are the main source of female hormones (estrogen and progesterone). These hormones control the development of female body characteristics, such as the breasts, body shape, and body hair. The ovaries also regulate the menstrual cycle and pregnancy.
Can change in weather affect menstrual cycle?

Can a yeast infection prolong your menstrual cycle?

Can trying to have a baby change menstrual cycle?
No, trying to have a baby can't change your menstrual cycle - think about it, your body is designed to try for a baby every cycle, it cannot tell when you have actually decided to try to get pregnant, not to mention it would make little sense for trying to have a baby to change your cycle. If you want to try for a baby then it may help for you to learn the basics about how babies are made first.
What is the phase of the menstrual cycle when the endometrium is degenerating?
The phase of the menstrual cycle when the endometrium is degenerating is the menstrual phase. During this phase, the lining of the uterus sheds and is expelled from the body along with blood.
What are elevated Basal body temperature?
During your menstrual cycle, an elevated basal body temperature indicates that you have entered your luteal phase. This means that you have ovulated and moved on from the folicular phase. During the first part of your cycle, your body produced estrogen which lowers the basal body temperature. Once ovulation occurs, the body begins to produce progesterone, which causes basal body temperature to rise slowly until your period comes. Throughout your cycle, your temperature should rise and fall, but it is considered an elevation when the temperature rise above a cover line and stays elevated above it.
What does the menstrual cycle prepare the body for?
Reproduction (having a baby)
