📅 Irregular periods
Never know when your period is coming?
Late, early or nothing for months. Irregular periods are common, but they are a sign that your body is out of balance.
Sound familiar?
Always late, a missed period, or your period just doesn't come.
You check your app every month and it's never right. One month your period comes after 25 days, the next after 40. Or you've missed a period and you're not pregnant. Tap what you recognise:
Where does it come from?
Irregular periods always have a cause
Your hormones are sensitive and easily thrown off balance. These are the most common causes of irregular periods and a late or missed period:
Stress
Stress hormones can delay ovulation or even skip it. Your period then shifts along with it.
Stopping birth control
After stopping the pill or other hormonal birth control, your body has to rebuild its own rhythm. This can take weeks to months.
PCOS
A hormonal condition in which ovulation often doesn't happen. Read more about PCOS.
Weight & exercise
Losing or gaining weight quickly, or very intense exercise, can disrupt your cycle.
Good to know: has your period been missing for more than 3 months (amenorrhea)? Then we advise getting it checked out. That way you know for sure there's no underlying cause, such as PCOS or a thyroid problem.
The approach
How to regulate your period naturally
Yoni steaming, also known as vaginal steaming, v-steaming or a yoni steam, is an ancient ritual from Asian, African and Central American cultures. Traditionally it was used especially for irregular periods, to warm the womb, regulate the cycle and bring the body back into rhythm.
Warms your womb
The warm herbal steam improves blood flow to your uterus and ovaries, so they are better nourished.
Lowers stress
Herbs like chamomile and lavender calm your body. Less tension gives your hormones more room to find their balance.
Helps bring on a late period
Vaginal steaming just before your expected period can help your body release the uterine lining and get your period back on track.
Brings back rhythm
By steaming at set moments, you keep giving your body the same signal. Ideal after stopping birth control, without synthetic hormones.

Your steam calendar
When should you steam for irregular periods?
You steam 1 to 2 times just before your period is due. Choose roughly how long your cycle is and instantly see when to steam.
My cycle usually lasts about:
- First time steaming? Start with once and see how your body responds.
- 15 to 20 minutes per session, ideally before bedtime.
- No idea when your period is due? Track your cycle in an app and count from the first day of your last period.
- Late and could you be pregnant? Take a pregnancy test first. Never steam during your period or pregnancy.
