ABOUT CAUSES OF INFERTILITY TREATMENTS DONOR SERVICES FINANCES PATIENTS CONTACT CAUSES OF INFERTILITY IRREGULAR MENSTRUAL CYCLE During a menstrual cycle each month, the body typically grows one follicle that will mature and eventually release an egg. The body will also secrete estrogen and progesterone to thicken the lining of the uterus to support the egg if it fertilizes. If fertilization does not occur, the uterine lining will shed in the form of your monthly period. Typically, a woman has her period every 21 to 35 days, lasting between four and seven days. However, some women have hormonal imbalances preventing ovulation that cause them to skip or have irregular periods. How does an irregular cycle affect my fertility?
