Having two menstrual periods per month is most commonly caused by endocrine imbalance. Such imbalances may stem from psychological factors or unhealthy lifestyle habits. For instance, prolonged anxiety or excessive stress can disrupt endocrine function; similarly, frequent late-night sleeping (i.e., staying up late regularly) may also contribute to this phenomenon.
