Do You Know Your Menstrual Cycle?
It’s a good idea to use a calendar to keep track of periods. It marks the first day with an “X”. Will continue counting the number of days until you have the following bleeding. If this is done every month, you can determine how many days elapse between each period and thus know when to start the next cycle. If records are kept on the calendar and periods are regular, can be determined every month when the next menstrual cycle starts. If the periods are not regular, you may still notice some signs in advance of the bleeding.
