My period came back just half a month after I left.

No matter whether you are a beautiful girl in college or a married mature woman, everyone has a common thing called "menstruation". Some people's menstruation is very mild, and every time it comes, it is sunny and clear. But for some people, their menstruation is very explosive, sometimes it comes more than ten days later, and every time it comes, it is completely out of rhythm. In fact, the editor here wants to tell you that these are all caused by the so-called irregular menstruation. So what is the cause of this irregular menstruation?

Causes of irregular menstruation

1. Abnormal mentality causes menstrual disorders

Mental abnormalities, such as long-term mental depression, tension and anxiety, or severe mental stimulation and psychological trauma, can cause menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea, or amenorrhea. This is because menstruation is caused by the action of hormones secreted by the uterus and ovaries on the uterine wall. The secretion of hormones by the uterus and ovaries is controlled by the hormones released by the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Therefore, any abnormality in the function of the uterus and ovaries, pituitary gland, or hypothalamus will affect menstruation.

2. Cold stimulation causes oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea

During women's menstrual period, severe cold stimulation will cause the blood vessels in the pelvis to contract excessively, which can lead to oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, women should pay attention to preventing cold and moisture during their menstrual period in their daily life.

3. Dieting to lose weight causes irregular menstruation

Girls need body fat to account for at least 17% of their body weight to experience menarche, and body fat should reach at least 22% of their body weight to maintain a normal menstrual cycle. Excessive dieting to lose weight will cause the body to consume a lot of body fat and protein due to insufficient energy intake, resulting in obstruction of estrogen production and a significant deficiency, affecting menarche, and even causing scant menstruation or amenorrhea. Therefore, ladies who pursue a slender figure should not blindly follow the trend of dieting to lose weight.

4. Alcohol and smoking cause menstrual disorders

Some components and ethanol in tobacco can affect the physiological processes related to menstruation and cause menstrual disorders. Among women who smoke and drink too much, 25% to 32% go to the hospital for treatment due to menstrual disorders. Among women who smoke more than one pack of cigarettes a day or drink more than 100 ml of strong liquor, the number of those with menstrual disorders is three times that of women who smoke and drink. Therefore, women should not smoke and drink less.

Based on the above reasons, we can understand that, in fact, we cannot blame the "menstruation" for being irregular and coming and going. In fact, whether the nature of the "menstruation" is good or bad depends entirely on how we treat our bodies in normal times and how we treat it when the "menstruation" comes. Therefore, if we want to get along well with the "menstruation" every month, we need to take good care of our bodies from now on.
