For example, it may be indirect age discrimination if an employer requires an older person to meet a physical fitness test â which more young people are able to meet â if the fitness standard is not an inherent requirement of the job.
A menstrual cycle is counted from the first day of bleeding in one month to the first day of bleeding in the next month. The average menstrual cycle is about 28 days, but cycles that are 21â45 days also are normal. It may take 6 years or more after your period starts for your cycle to get regular.
The first day of your period, when you start bleeding, is counted as the first day of your cycle. If you have a 28-day cycle, you'll usually ovulate some time between day 12 and day 16 of your cycle. During your period an egg is usually developing, ready for release mid-cycle. The time it takes for an egg to mature within the ovary can vary. This means that the day you ovulate can also vary from cycle to cycle.
