Keeping track of your monthly cycle?

Keep track of your period by calendar or cell phone so that you have a good estimate of when your period is going to start. After about a year of having your menstruation cycles, you should be able to predict within 1-3 days of when your period will start after keeping track of it. The first few cycles may happen at random due to the occurring changes in hormone levels in your body.

What about unusual bleeding?

Just as you can have an irregular period, you may also notice unusual or unexpected bleeding at some point. There can be spotting for a day or two after your cycle has ended. It is common for periods to be somewhat irregular. The cycle also may get shorter after the age of 35. At this time it is also normal to have a skipped or missed period.
