Usually when you stop menstrating you start again in 24 days. Everyone's body is different. However I start around the 15th of the month every month if I want to or not. Most women menstrate for 4 days but I have had 3 day periods(when I'm lucky lol) and I've had 5 day periods. It's usually 24 days of not bleeding then 4 days of bleeding. That's why it's called a 28 day cycle. Around that time carry pads in your hand bag just in case. Keep a calendar so you know when it's coming as if the cramps in your stomach aren't a clue.
Suggest you put the pads in your purse on the 3rd or 4th just to be safe. Nothing worse than needing a pad and not having one.
