Does The Menstrual Cycle Changing From 28 To 35 Days Require Medical Attention?

Hi. From the last three months my cycle has changed from 28 to 35 days. This time I should have got my periods by 22nd April but I am a bit delayed now. Have been sexually active. To be sure got a home kit pregnancy test, the results of which were negative. I am not sure why my period cycle has changed. I have been mostly regular with my periods.

I have gone through your Query & I really appreciate your concern about the problem you are facing.

As a physician I would like to tell you that there are numerous biological and physiological factors that induces a change in Length of a menstrual cycle. Ex.Hormonal contraceptives, IUDs, PCOS ect. There could be any one of the reason in your case. But you need not to worry about anything as long as you are getting monthly periods regularly

I would also like to suggest you to keep an eye on length and the length should not exceed 35-40 days and should not shorten more than 22-24 days.
