How this calculator works
The result depends on the numbers you enter and the assumptions shown below.

The menstrual cycle averages 28 days but can range from 21 to 35 days. This calculator predicts upcoming period dates by adding your cycle length repeatedly from your last period start.

Review the inputs carefully and treat the output as an estimate. For decisions involving money, taxes, health, law, or security, compare the result with trusted professional guidance when needed.
