Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -How long is a menstrual cycle? For menstruating women, an average menstrual cycle lasts 28 days. It starts with the first day of the last period and ends with the first day of the next menstrual period.

Detailed explanation-2: -Longer cycles are an indicator that ovulation is not occurring or at least not in a regular manner which can make conception difficult. What Causes Long Menstrual Cycles? Longer cycles are caused by a lack of regular ovulation. During a normal cycle, it is the fall of progesterone that brings upon bleeding.

Detailed explanation-3: -Begin on day one of your period and count the number of days until your next period, which is day one of your next cycle. Track for 3 months and add the total number of days. Divide that number by three and you’ll have your average cycle length. Ovulation normally occurs 12-16 days prior to your period.
