Period Came Six Days Early Posted: 04-12-06 15:53pm
Does this sound normal? I have googled
"causes of early menstrual cycle" and
really didn't get anything about it. My
cycles have been overall normal for the
past couple of years, and my cycle is
prone to changing every few months, but
not by more than one or two days. For
example, it came on the 20th of the months
for about four months, and then it came on
the 18th. Then it went from a 30-day
cycle to a 28-day cycle. But I have never
had a cycle suckers as this most recent
one (only about 22 days).
For the record, I have not been under any
tremendous stress (a little minor stress
here and there, like most people have),
have not begun any exercising, no
significant weight gain or loss, and the
only change in my diet is that I have been
eating a little less than usual in an
attempt to lose those pesky "freshman 15".
Also, I am not on birth control, or any
medication for that matter. Anything that
would cause a change in my cycle has not
happened or was not used.
I also want to add this...All the symptoms
I normally get prior to the start of my
period, I got. I noted the classic change
in discharge as well as light soreness in
the sides of my pelvis where my ovaries
are. The blood isn't a different color
than normal and is not any lighter or
heavier than normal.
Have any of you ladies ever experienced
this? Does anyone have a suggestion of
what it could be?
I wasn't worrying before, but now I kind
of am. I don't know if my cycles have
just decided to be out of whack for no
reason, or if there really is a problem.
I would sincerely appreciate any advice on
this at all.

Mine came early too Posted: 05-13-08 20:40pm
My period was about 9 days early this
month, which has never ever happened to me
(have been getting a period for about 18
years and am like clockwork on a 28-day
cycle). I also googled "early period" and
came up with virtually nothing. I started
spotting in between my periods about 8
months ago, so I've been to a few doc's,
and all suggest a hormonal imbalance. I
did some research on this, and yes, based
on what I found if hormones are off
balance then an early period can occur.
Nonetheless, it still seems odd to me and
has me concerned. Let me know if you find
out anything further.
