my period is 5 days early but is always on time at 28 days. I have never been on birth control. Why would this be?

Hi, and thanks for your medical question on eHealth forum!

Periods can delay or come early by a week for no reason. However, if they persist from cycle to cycle, consult your gynecologist to rule out hormonal imbalance. Hope this helps. Take care!
