Okay how many days is my cycle if I have my period for 7-8 days?

Question

I dont know if my cycle is 28 days or 30 days I NEED HELP!!!!!!

Answer 1

count from the 1st day off your period till you next get it and thats how long your cycle is

Answer 2

Cycle day 1 is the first day of red flow or when you need a pad or tampon. Spotting does not count.

Answer 3

Your period length has nothing to do with your cycle length. All you can do is keep track of your period start date every month to figure out where you stand on your cycle length. My cycle is 28 days nearly every month... but my period length has ranged from 3-7 days.

If this is an issue concerning trying to conceive (or trying to avoid), you might want to use an online calendar on a site such as fertilityfriend.com. Not only will it keep track of your cycle length, but it will also show you when you are most fertile so you can use that time most wisely!

I wish I could help you out more... but observation on your part is the only way to find your answer.

Answer 4

It doesn't matter how long your period is.  What you do is start counting from the day you start to your next period.  So if you start on July 30 and then your next period is August 30 your cycle is 32 days.

Answer 5

you count from the first day of  the last period to the first of the next and that is how manys days
