A menstrual cycle is counted from the first day of bleeding in one month to the first day of bleeding in the next month. The average menstrual cycle is about 28 days, but cycles that are 21â45 days also are normal. It may take 6 years or more after your period starts for your cycle to get regular.
One woman may have a period every 21 days, bleed for a few days and lose only a few teaspoonfuls of blood. Another woman may have her period only every 35 days, bleed for more than a week and lose several teaspoonfuls of blood. Both are within normal ranges of vaginal bleeding in the average premenopausal woman.
