Irregular menstrual cycles?

This may sound like an offbeat idea, but many of my readers, clients, and adult students have reported that it has helped normalize periods:

Try eating a few tablespoons of wheat germ daily.

Ladies can put it on breakfast cereal, or on ice cream, and it's not bad. Make sure the wheat germ, if packaged in a bag, is purchased from a store where it is always kept refrigerated. Wheat germ in a vacuum packed jar does not have to be refrigerated until it is opened.

I am not saying that this is the sure answer, but it is a harmless method to try first. Wheat germ contains, among other things, quite a lot of magnesium and natural vitamin E. If you feel you are gluten intolerant, you could try just the vitamin E and magnesium.

Women with cycles that were unusually short, or excessively long, have sent me a lot of positive feedback from this suggestion, which is so simple (and effective) that it constitutes one of the shortest pages at DoctorYourself.com.

See a doctor if the problem persists.
