---- I believe that there is a big misnomer when it comes to women's health. We have a "one-size-fits-all" mentality when it comes to how long our cycles should be and that's just simply not the case. There are over a billion women on this earth and not two women's bodies are the same. While it may be perfectly normal for one woman to have a "textbook" 28-day cycle, it is just as normal (if not more so) for me to have a cycle that varies monthly from every 18 days to 38 days.
The 28 day cycle is so prevalent because it seems to be the most average among women, however, don't let it be confused as rule - it's just an average.
Now that we have established that any women can have a variety of cycle lengths and that it's perfectly normal, we need, however, need to examine when it might not be normal and what the potential causes may be. The good rule to go by is understanding what your normal cycle is. This can be done by tracking your menses over several months to establish your bodies pattern to cycle. Once this is established, it is far easier to determine when things happen/don't happen that are out of the ordinary.
Once you better understand how your very own cycle works and what is normal, it's much easier to determine when things are different - skipped periods, unusually heavy/light flows and spotting between cycles are the most common issues that women report. Luckily, they are also the easiest to diagnose and treat with a quick, simple trip to your gynecologist. It is important for every woman 16 and above to find a gynecologist that they trust and feel comfortable with. If a woman doesn't feel completely at ease with their physician, they are less likely to return for follow up visits such as annual check-ups and Pap Smears. This can cause vital women's health issues to go untreated and ultimately lead to hysterectomies and even cancers that could have been completely avoidable with proper early care by a trusted physician. ---- ----
