Generally it shortens as soon as I start dieting, to the extent of having cycles of just 23 days. Once I stop dieting, it lengthens again to 27-29 days, sometiems 31 days.

interesting - my cycle shortened from 27-29 to around 23 when I had my rt ovary removed 3 yrs ago - and the days shortened in 1st phase rather than 2nd. I'm still 14d post ovul. like clockwork. Wonder what that means in terms of being peri-peri?
