Hi everyone,
Is there anyone who has long cycles for no apparent reason, struggled with getting any results with nbe, and found a way to reduce the length of their cycle? I have 43-45 day cycles, have had 2 successful pregnancies with such cycles, and was tested and told numerous times that's 'just how I am and have naturally long cycles'. Yet I've been trying various methods of nbe for years with absolutely no luck. I feel like I'm grasping at straws to find the key to my growth so any help is appreciated.

Well if it's how your cycles are then there's no problem with them being long. 28 days is just an average and it even differs a lot by countries.
It's well explained on wikipedia under the length section:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstrual_cycle

There's a difference between long cycles and irregular cycles.

Thank you, that makes so much sense!

Hi jaybee11,

I have 4 kids, all natural births and I have very long cycles too.
I have been countless times to the doctor about it and they always send off for me to get all of these tests and blood work done, just to find out that there is nothing wrong with me.
It drives my husband crazy
If you find a cure for this crazy cycle before I do, Please share your secret to healing this nightmare.
