Mostly normal: While the usual cycle is 28 days long, the normal range is from 21 to 34 days. Somewhat shorter cycles are often one of the earliest changes as you approach menopause.

Irregular menses: Reasons for irregularity include weight gain or loss, breastfeeding, alcohol use, eating disorders, marked emotional stress, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, cervical polyps, polycystic ovarian syndrome, excessive exercise & pregnancy. When a girl has just started menstruating & around the time of menopause periods can be irregular.
