The menstrual cycle is calculated from the first day of the period to the first day of the next day. The average menstrual cycle is 28 days, but it can vary from woman to woman. Your periods are still considered regular if they come every 24 to 38 days. If the time between your periods varies and your periods come earlier or later, then your periods are considered irregular.

Treatment depends on finding out what's causing your irregular periods, but there are ways you can try at home to get your periods back on track. Today we are telling you about one such herbal drink under our series 'I bleed' which will help you to bring your periods on time. Ayurvedic doctor DikshaBhavsar has shared information related to this on her Instagram account.
