MISSING YOUR PERIOD MEANS THIS!

If someone's menstrual cycle is irregular, should they be concerned? — Yes. Yes. — How irregular? What's like if I'm not getting my menstrual cycle? — Absolutely not good. You should go see a doctor. If your cycle is irregular, if the calendar trick, you're putting your finger and it's nowhere near when your cycle's coming. Or I have women who say, "Oh, there's no way I could predict it. " Or, "I know it will come, but it'll come every four to six weeks. " Your body's meant to work like clockwork when it comes to your hormones and your menstrual cycle. And yes, you can always have one abnormal month, always. But when you consistently are having irregularity, that is a sign that something else is going on. It's one of the biggest red flags that we have for early hormonal health or systemic problems. But to your earlier point, Stephen, we have a generation of women on contraceptive options who are not tracking their cycles. We have women who are not taught how to track their cycles. They don't know when ovulation occurs. They don't know how long their ludal phase is. If I say the first sign of ovulatory dysfunction or having a problem with your cycle is a short ludal phase, well, you only know that if you're tracking when ovulation occurs because otherwise you could still have a regular cycle, but you don't know that something's abnormal. — And that lutial phase again is the last half of your cycle. Exactly.
