Your menstrual cycle isn’t meant to stay exactly the same forever—and that’s completely normal 🌸
As women move through different life stages, hormone levels like estrogen and progesterone naturally shift, which can change the length, flow, or symptoms of a period. Some women notice lighter cycles, heavier bleeding, or irregular timing, especially as they approach their late 30s and 40s.
While many changes are part of the body’s natural rhythm, persistent pain or major cycle changes should always be discussed with a healthcare provider.
At Premier OBGYN of Ridgewood, we help women understand their bodies at every stage of life and provide expert care for menstrual health. 💜
