OK, ladies. We all know how it is. Nobody loves to get her period. But when it doesn't come like clockwork, we get a little worried.

I've heard of yoga helping all sorts of conditions. From personal experience, I can attest to yoga's calming and stress-relieving abilities. However, this is the first time I've ever heard of yoga helping out when you're missing your period. (OK, maybe not missing it, but at least wondering where it went.) The article doesn't explain exactly how the yoga poses are supposed to help, and I have to admit that I'm a bit skeptical. However, it certainly couldn't hurt.

There are many reasons for irregular periods or a complete absence of periods. Your best course of action is to visit your doctor if you're concerned.
