An irregular period, medically known as oligomenorrhea, is a common problem among women. It usually refers to infrequent periods with intervals of more than 35 days.
A normal menstrual cycle ranges from 21 to 35
days. Menstrual bleeding generally lasts for two to seven days. Women normally
have 11 to 13 periods in a year, but those with oligomenorrhea may have fewer
than six or seven periods.
Irregular periods are characterized by variations in the time between each of your periods, the number of days that your periods last, and abnormal blood loss (whether less or more than usual) during a period.
Menstrual cycles tend to be irregular during the first few years after menstruation starts and also at the end of a woman’s menstrual years, when she is approaching menopause.
