WHY YOU HAVE YOUR PERIOD TWICE A MONTH!

- By Favourite Nurse Favour


During an online gathering where I was giving a Health Talk, a lady spoke up and said that the issue of having a period twice a month has caused a serious problem in the home of someone she knows and she was so curious to know why it occurs.

I will be helping you clear off your curiosity by giving you five (5) concise answers on Why You Have Your Period Twice A Month.

Firstly, very often if see your period twice a month, it is because you have a "SHORT CYCLE" and you are "MISCALCULATING YOUR CYCLE".

Ladies, having your period twice a month is not bad at all, it is very normal and it can continue like that and you don't have to worry about that. But this is only permitted for women with short menstrual cycles like if your cycle is between 21 days, 22 days, 23 days, or 24 days cycle. 

If you have 21 days cycle, and you see your period on the 1st of May, it is very normal that you will see it again on the 21st of May as well, making it twice a month. With this now, it is not bad at all.

But now the issue is that 80% of women don't even know how to calculate their menstrual cycle and talk more about knowing what exactly their cycle length is in particular, this is a serious case on its own among women.

Knowing your menstrual cycle is very important dear ladies because when you have a short cycle, you will know it is normal to have your period twice a month and nobody will deceive you to start taking some harmful mixtures. 

Secondly, Another possibility that warrants a lady to have her period twice a month, could be that she is experiencing a "HORMONAL IMBALANCE".

Treating hormonal imbalance is so important because what makes you different from a young girl of 5 years old is based on the hormones that are at work in you as a lady which are not fully at work in that little girl. 

Please note: Hormones are what help your Fertility as ladies and other body functions and that's why you must pay attention to it. 

Thirdly,  "STRESS, This does not for every lady, but some ladies do react to stress in this way making them have a period twice a month. There is a relationship and correlation between stress and your menstrual period. If you notice that any time you are stressed, that's when your period comes twice, JUST KINDLY REST.

Fourthly, 'USING CERTAIN MEDICATION". If you are on any birth control drugs, having your period, twice a month would occur. Some other women experience late and missing periods. For instance ladies, who also use Postinor-2, could equally experience this.

If all of the above reason has been ruled out by a doctor, then having your period twice a month could be a result of some UNDERLYING HEALTH CONDITIONS like PCOS(Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome), Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, STI, etc. 

When you notice you have a missed period, please do well to seek medical advice.

Thank you so much,  I trust this helps every lady stay safe and healthy. Also, please feel free to send in your questions and if there is a topic you would like me to talk about then please let me know in the comment section.

Lots of love, sincerely yours

IRREGULAR PERIODS: Causes, Signs & Tips Every Woman Should Know.

- By Favourite Nurse Favour

Dear Queen, How often have you silently wondered if your period is “normal” — yet felt too scared or confused to ask? You’re not alone in this quiet struggle. So many of us carry the weight of unanswered questions, enduring pain, missed cycles, or heavy bleeding, wondering if this is just “how it’s supposed to be.” Sometimes it feels like we know more about the latest phone or fashion trend than about the very rhythms of our own bodies — those sacred cycles that shape who we are. And the silence around this topic? Deafening. But your body is speaking, Queen. It’s trying to tell you something deep and vital — a message that could change everything about how you feel, live, and love yourself. You deserve to hear that message loud and clear. Because your menstrual cycle is not just a “monthly thing.” It’s a mirror reflecting your health, your stress, your strength, and your spirit. One of the most important signals to pay attention to is when your period becomes irregular. So, what...

YEAST INFECTION (GENITAL CANDIDIASIS INTRO)

GENITAL YEAST INFECTION Yeast infection can be so uncomfortable. It makes you restless, irritated and tired–especially when it keeps coming back even after you’ve treated it. In fact, 3 out of 4 ladies would experience this once in their life time.  Just imagine being invited to an event, and while you are on stage giving a speech, you suddenly feel an intense desire to itch your vulva. You try to ignore it, but the itch just won’t stop. At that point, it might even disorganize your thoughts, and you find yourself rushing through your speech just to run to the restroom. This infection is both embarrassing and exhausting. Let me give you another example:  A lady once said, that when hers starts, she uses a comb to scratch it. Yes–a comb! She said the more she scratches, the more intense the itch becomes. Just imagine what we women go through. And that’s why on this blog, you are going to learn about: “What exactly is a yeast infection, including its symptoms.” WHAT IS YEAST INF...
