Irregular menstrual cycle tends to take different amount of time in each month. For example, someone with irregular period might get her period after 24 days one month and 42 days after.

An average cycle spans for 28 days but varies among individuals – most women have between 11 and 13 menstrual periods each year. Bleeding usually last around five days, but this too can vary, from 2 to 7 days.

However, the main symptom of irregular menstruation is when the cycle is longer than 35 days.

For treatment, it is important that you find out what is causing your irregular period but while doing that, there are some remedies you can try at home to get your period back on track.

Below are some science-proven remedies for irregular menstrual period.

1) Maintain a healthy weight

Changes in weight can affect your periods. If you are obese, losing your weight could help regulate your period.


Women who are overweight are also more likely to have irregular periods, and experience heavier bleeding and pain than women who are at a healthy weight. This is due to the impact that fat cells have on hormones and insulin.

2). Exercise Regularly

Exercise has many health benefits that can help your periods. It can help you reach or maintain a healthy weight and is commonly recommended as part of a treatment plan for Polycystic Ovary syndrome (PCOS). PCOS can cause menstrual irregularity.

3) Practice Yoga

Yoga has also been proven to reduce menstrual pain and emotional symptoms associated with menstruation, such as depression and anxiety, and improve quality of life in women with primary dysmenorrhea.

Women with primary dysmenorrhea experience extreme pain before and during their menstrual period.

Practicing yoga 35 to 40 minutes a day, 5 times a week, helps regulate hormones and menstruation cycles. Yoga also reduces premenstrual symptoms.

4). Get a daily dose of vitamins

Scientists have linked low levels of vitamin D to irregular periods and suggested that taking Vitamin D could help regulate menstruation.

Vitamin D is very effective in treating menstrual irregularity in women with PCOS.

B vitamins may also lower the risk of premenstrual symptoms. Studies have shown that women who consumed food sources of vitamin B have a significantly lower risk of PMS.

Taking a daily vitamin B and D supplements may help regulate your menstrual cycle.

5). Spice things up with some Cinnamon
