Your body is not a clock, and variation in your menstrual cycle is normal, especially if you are pregnant, teenager, breastfeeding or nearing menopause. Stress, travel, diet, illness , and medication (including birth control) can also affect your cycle length, symptoms and the length and heaviness of your period. Up to 7–9 days of variation cycle-to-cycle is considered normal for adults.
