The Doctor is in

Is there a link between the hot and humid weather and erratic periods? I am 23 years old and have noticed that I have been bleeding less.

Dr Asha Sharma, Head of the Department, Gynaecology, Rockland hospital, says: Change in climate does make a difference in periods. One city to another, climate change can make a difference 8212; periods can be early or late?. But the flow does not get disturbed usually. If there is a slight change in flow you should not worry and watch till the next period, unless the bleeding continues for a month. The periods changing due to the weather are not a cause of worry as they as they settle down on their own.
