Maybe: sometimes because of delayed or skipped ovulation, the menstrual clock goes off pattern. it will usually reset itself in time or you can do BCPs for 2 cycles to reprogram it.

Menstrual cycle: A normal menstrual cycle, from first day of bleeding to first day of bleeding, can be any where from 21-32days. This is a normal ovulatory cycle. Cycle lengths outside this range are abnormal. They may be anovulatory(no egg release). Count out the days from first day to first day. If outside this range (21-32), further evaluation by your doctor is warranted.
