I had irregular (once every two/three months) periods from the age of 11 to about 22, when I started seriously dropping weight. Now they're like clockwork, I nearly know the hour it's going to start every 31 days. So definitely yes.

Yep.

Both having kids and losing weight has caused me to have almost normal cycles. For both of my daughters, when I wanted to get pregnant, I lost about 15lbs and then promptly conceived. And now that I'm turning 30, even at a high weight, I'm cycling.

I was on the pill until TTC my first baby. Found out that I had irregular periods when I came off the pill, at that time I was around 195 pounds (so 40+ pounds overweight). I've since had a 2nd baby. And since that baby have lost quite a lot of weight and am no longer on the pill since TTC our 2nd. My cycle is exactly 28 days, without fail, every month now. I have no doubt that it regulated due to my weight loss. I don't have PCOS, and never had any reproductive issues though. It took us just under 7 months to conceive our first, and got pregnant the first try with our 2nd.

I didn't have my period for 3 years. I lost 25lbs and got my period. I'm assuming they are related.

I have PCOS. I had extremely irregular cycles when I was heavier. I initially controlled it with BC, but didn't want to take it anymore. For me, it did self-regulate with weight loss. It's kinda crazy how quickly it changed. My cycles are now about 31 days. I'm wondering if the cycle will shorten to 28 as I continue to lose. My doc says as long as it's regular, I'm fine.

I was on the pill for 2 years and my periods have been irregular ever since, I am also a lot heavier so I am hoping its just the weight!
