What would cause my period to come 5 days early? i'm usually like clockwork. 9 months postpartum tubes tied.

Continue to monitor: Hello The rate at which your periods occur are determined by the fluctuations of the hormones estrogen and progesterone. If only one or two period as coming early, I don't think its an issue. Your body might be setting a new schedule or it might switch back to your old schedule in a couple of months.
