Menstruation ?'s: Changes in frequency and amounts of pain, bleeding are caused by increasing age, delays in ovulation secondary to stress (emotional, or job related) and of course pregnancy. Significant changes should be reviewed by your gyn physician as to specific causation.

Various : Menstrual cycle timing is controlled by a delicate balance of hormones. Stress, changes in weight, certain medications, birth control and of course pregnancy can all affect cycle timing. Always best to keep a menstrual calender to keep track of your cycles.

A 23-year-old female asked:
Can I naturally change my menstrual cycle?

Dr. Helen Sandlandanswered

No: You may read that you can take black cohosh, but it is not proven effective and imo, any substance that you take to effect a change in your body is a drug. So, that leaves pregnancy, breast feeding as the only natural ways to stop it. Best bet is some form of birth control pill/ring/mirena. If you are due to have a period on your wedding day, your doctor would like at least 2 months heads up!

Possible infection: A "fishy" of "foul" odor post menses may be a sign of infection. Please see your clinician for evaluation and possible treatment.
