9. Preventing Irregular Periods
While it isn't always possible to prevent irregular periods, there are a few safe methods women can try. It's important to treat the root cause of irregular periods for them to become regular again.
When irregular periods are caused by stress or other lifestyle factors, women can try meditation or other relaxation techniques. Taking a few moments for self-care each day could make a difference. Getting yearly gynecological exams, staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet could also prove helpful.
