About Period Tracker / Calculator

Normal cycle range

Cycles between 21 and 35 days are considered normal in adults. Teen cycles can be 21-45 days. Cycles shorter than 21 or longer than 40 warrant a doctor visit.

Why cycles vary

Stress, weight changes, exercise intensity, sleep, illness, medication, and approaching menopause all affect cycles. The follicular phase (before ovulation) varies most; the luteal phase is fairly fixed at 12-14 days.

Tracking tools

Period tracking apps (Clue, Flo, Apple Health) detect patterns over months and predict more accurately than averaging. Bodily symptoms (cramping, mood, discharge) also help.
