Do your periods feel like they come randomly? Are you thinking of taking the pill because of it?
Your periods may come irregularly for many reasons, and the pill may not always be the best answer. Take a look at some of the underlying reasons for irregular periods and the holistic health care options for getting your cycles back on schedule.
One common reason why periods come later than expected is because ovulation was delayed. Ovulation is the main event that usually happens at the midpoint of your cycle when your ovaries release an egg. If this egg is not fertilized, then it is released with the uterine lining about two weeks later. Things like illness or an unusual amount of stress can lead the body to postpone ovulation. Even things like too much exercise can throw your cycles off.
Dr. Marina Rose, DC has helped women with irregular menstrual cycles and people with other challenging, chronic health conditions in and around the city of San Jose, CA.
Holistic health care promotes the use of relaxation techniques and balanced lifestyle to help your body manage stress. Dr. Deepak Chopra agrees that meditation reduces stress. Staying off the pill can be as simple as adopting a stress management technique like meditation or just making more time for activities you enjoy.
