For about three months now my menstrual cycle is 33 days or more. Is that normal?

Yes. The "28 day" rule is just an average. Some people have more time between their periods and some people have less.

It can be completely normal. It just means that rather than ovulating around Day 14, you probably ovulate somewhere around Day 20. This is perfectly normal and is no cause for alarm.
Remember, the whole "28 day cycle with ovulation on Day 14" is mostly myth. It happens for 10-20% of the world's women, not all.

Well considering a typical cycle is 28 days,it is abnormal. But sometimes periods just change, I am pretty sure nothing is wrong. If you are concerned about it I would go and see your Dr. They can give you a more accurate answer. Birth Control can also help to regulate your cycles. My cycles are from 28 to 38 days.Good Luck.

That's exactly how mine is (or was until I became pregnant).
Did you recently change jobs or living arangments, or otherwise have a different woman come into regular contact with you?
Women's hormones can often change other women's cycles. When a new woman started working with, I suddenly went to 28 day cycles for a few months, but then slowly went back to my 35 day one.

My whole life since I was 12 my cycle has been around 36 days, so I would say sure. I havent had any major problems.

some people just have longer cycles...if you want a 28 day cycle you can always ask to be put on the pill or something like that..although it didnt regulate my cycles to 28 days but it did help. But if you arent having any problems then i think you are fine. but talk to your dr. they may be concerned.

My periods have always been 32-45 days. They come every month though. So yes I'd say it's normal, but they usually call your cycle irregular.

I have a 35 day cycle, and I am very healthy! Sounds normal to me.

So prior to 3 months ago, your cycle was more? Less?
A change in monthly cycle may be hormonal. Are you of the age where perimenopausal symptoms occur?
