The average menstrual cycle is 28 days long. However, a normal cycle can be shorter or longer than this. It may be anywhere from 21 to 35 days long. Most periods last 3 to 5 days, but anywhere from 2 to 7 days is normal.
A late period is one of the scariest experiences if you're not planning on being a mom anytime soon. It's actually pretty normal for women's periods to be delayed for several reasons, and you shouldn't just assume it's because you're pregnant. Here are a few to keep in mind. 1  Your cycle might be irregular from month to month. 2  This means that last month your cycle might have been 24 days long, and this month it could be 32 days long. 3  When your period doesn't show up when it's expected, it could be because your body hasn't finished its cycle yet.
