Is a 18-day menstrual cycle normal?

Patient's question:

Is a 18-day menstrual cycle normal? If it happens occasionally once or a few times, is it not necessary to get checked?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the menstrual cycle is 18 days, it's a bit too short. A standard 18-day cycle should have one possible case of pseudomenorrhea, which is a manifestation of ovulatory dysfunctional bleeding.
