For example, if a woman had menstruation before every 28 days, and later the cycle became irregular or significantly lengthened( contracted), she can talk about hidden problems in the ovaries. In some cases, the ovaries do not have time to produce eggs or work excessively hard. With any violation of the menstrual cycle, you should make an appointment with a specialist.
