- Regular menstruation is a sign of a healthy reproductive system. Overweight and underweight not only affect the regularity of the cycles, but also can affect fertility of the woman. Healthy exercises and a balanced diet can surely keep the hormonal play regulated. Some women experience symptoms like bloating, acne, mood swings, breast pain, etc. before periods, which are normal. Pain during menstruation is normal, unless it becomes excruciating. Heavy bleeding can be a sign of fibroids or hormonal imbalance. Certainly, missing periods can be a sign of PCOD, thyroid abnormality and even pregnancy. Keeping a check on the way we menstruate is worthy enough!
