In this week’s YouTube video I review exactly what you should expect for a ‘normal' menstrual period. You need to know what is typical for cycle length, period length, and more in order to know when to see a doctor. Short cycles and long cycles can be warning signs for hormonal abnormalities and anatomic issues like polyps and fibroids. If you track your cycle for a few months and know what to ask your doctor - you can get the help you need!
