    28 Day NORMAL??

    alright, just curious. is twnety eight days for a menstrual cycle the average? i can't think of a time mine has EVER been that. mine is usually anywhere from like thirty to thirtysix days about. i'm talking about, day one is when i get it, and i don't stop counting until i get it again, like thirty+ days later. is this okay? this isn't bad is it? some girls i know can bet their life on twenty eight days. mine isn't a health issue, is it? i'm not overly worried, just curious!

    There's a big difference between "average" and "normal." Average is just what you learned in Math class: there might be some numbers spot on average, some higher, some MUCH higher, and some significantly lower.
    I was running a 5-week cycle before I got on birth control pills. Some women go months between periods. There really is no "normal." If it worries you, see a gyno: s/he'll probably tell you you're normal but give you the option of the pills.
