A member asked:

I was wondering what does it mean when a women come on her menstrual cycle early?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Different things: The menstrual cycle is controlled by hormones. As a result , there may be times it comes on early or late based on how your body is responding to things around you. There are other times when it might be due to a medical condition that requires a doctors attention.
