A short menstrual cycle—medically referred to as polymenorrhea—means that the time interval between the start of one period and the start of the next is consistently shorter than 21 days. This pattern can indicate hormonal imbalances, luteal phase defects, thyroid dysfunction, perimenopausal transitions, or reduced ovarian reserve. Anyone experiencing persistent short cycles should consult a healthcare provider for professional evaluation and hormone testing.
