Dr. Iris,
Is there any way to tell when you have ovulated? If your period comes two times in one month is another egg released? How often and why would your period come twice in one month?
Thanks, A.B.
Dear A.B.,
Don’t think of your period as “once a month”. Think of it as a cycle that occurs every 21, 26, 28, 32… you fill in the number of days your cycle lasts. So if your cycle is less than 30 or 31 days you are bound to get two periods in one calendar month. For example, if your period is on a 26 day cycle, you could get your period on May 1 and then again on May 27. If your cycle is shorter, it is even more likely that two periods may come in one month. Usually you ovulate 14 days before your period starts. I hope this clarifies this issue for you.
