For the love of Pete, if your period isn't a good excuse to skip a workout, I don't know what is. I mean, all that cramping, cranking and craving. Who wants to exercise during all that? I'd much rather slip on some comfy clothes, prop up my tootsies and snack away. Not such as good idea, says Love+Blueberries -- seems period exercise can be more pleasant than you think.

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.

I have yet to meet a women who doesn't complain about her period. Goodness knows I have. We worry about it's arrival each month (admit it -- you've counted days on a calendar worrying about whether "it" will come during prom or your wedding or your beach vacation). But when it doesn't arrive like clockwork, that's worrisome in a whole other way. For women with irregular periods the question is usually "why?"

Researchers from four universities surveyed women and found that only 28% had perfectly regular cycles. The reasons for irregular periods vary. Here are just some of the possibilities:

• Late periods. If you're over 45 and your periods are stretching out for longer periods of time you might be perimenopausal. If you're under 45, talk to your doctor -- you may have a hormone imbalance.
