Why would someone's menstral cycle come two weeks early?

Stress is the most common cause of an early period, so don’t stress. The most common reason why women begin their periods early is because of a significant amount of stress that they may be feeling at the time. Stress levels can affect a woman’s hormones (mainly estrogen). This problem with estrogen can mean that the timing of the period is affected dramatically.

Caffeine can have an effect, too. By drinking too many fluids that contain caffeine, like pop, tea and coffee, a woman’s period may begin early - especially if they’re not used to drinking caffeine. This substance can quickly cause irritability, nervousness and sleeplessness within women. It can also change the timing of the woman’s cycle.

Birth control may be the cause, too. The reaction that a body has from starting or just changing the kind of birth control that is used can be a reason. This is similar to any other kind of medication that you may first start to use. Birth control will be able to cause irregularity in periods for the first few months of using it. It generally lightens the period, too.

It could even be hypopitutitarism. This is the most serious cause of early periods and you must speak to your doctor. It means that you won’t produce enough of certain hormones in your body to remain healthy, and it can cause your pituitary gland to start slowing down. This can cause major effects on your cycle, given that it is this gland that produces six major body hormones. Your cycle can be drastically affected, too. You should consult a doctor if you’re concerned about this, as they and only they will be able to provide you with the advice and the medication that you are going to require.

The signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism vary widely, depending on the severity of the hormone deficiency. But in general, any problems you do have tend to develop slowly, often over a number of years.

At first, you may barely notice the symptoms of hypothyroidism, such as fatigue and sluggishness, or you may simply attribute them to getting older. But as your metabolism continues to slow, you may develop more obvious signs and symptoms. Hypothyroidism signs and symptoms may include:

Fatigue
Sluggishness
Increased sensitivity to cold
Constipation
Pale, dry skin
A puffy face
Hoarse voice
An elevated blood cholesterol level
Unexplained weight gain
Muscle aches, tenderness and stiffness
Pain, stiffness or swelling in your joints
Muscle weakness
Heavier than normal menstrual periods
Brittle fingernails and hair
Depression
When hypothyroidism isn't treated, signs and symptoms can gradually become more severe. Constant stimulation of your thyroid to release more hormones may lead to an enlarged thyroid (goiter). In addition, you may become more forgetful, your thought processes may slow, or you may feel depressed.

Advanced hypothyroidism, known as myxedema, is rare, but when it occurs it can be life-threatening. Signs and symptoms include low blood pressure, decreased breathing, decreased body temperature, unresponsiveness and even coma. In extreme cases, myxedema can be fatal.

Oly's cycle is at a hearty and healthy pace.
