Supergirl...I take a week off each month(not cuz of my period tho) I just take a week off so I do not burn out. Anyhoo...During the the week I have my period and workout, it's a MUCH shorter cycle! IE: Three day cycle ONLY.. I'll have a five day cycle if I'm NOT working out that week during my cycle! There seems to be a correlation here too.
