What causes menstrual disorders in middle age?

Middle-aged women often suffer from various physical problems, among which menstrual disorders are one of them. Often women in this age group are experiencing a turbulent time. As their bodies are on a downward trend, that is, their ovarian function is degenerating, their body functions are gradually declining, and various problems emerge one after another. The most headache-inducing one is menstrual disorder. So, why do they have menstrual disorders in middle age? Let me analyze it for you.

There will indeed be irregular menstruation before menopause. This is a physiological stage that every woman will go through, so there is no need to worry too much. Many women would comfort themselves and convince themselves in this way. Regarding this irregularity, experts say: "Generally, there are three types. One is that the menstrual volume gradually decreases, the cycle gradually lengthens, and slowly stops; one is irregular bleeding, with a long time and a large amount; the third is sudden menstruation. Among these three situations, especially the long time and large amount, special attention should be paid to the similarities with some diseases and must be taken seriously."

There are many such cases in clinical practice. People have had irregular bleeding for more than a year and think that the irregularity is normal. By the time they are discovered during physical examinations, they are already in the late stage of cancer. Therefore, female friends are reminded: "Irregular bleeding should first rule out organic diseases, such as endometrial cancer, cervical cancer or ovarian tumors, and then consider the menopausal factor." Because people in their forties and fifties are at a high risk of these diseases, but when you first check hormone levels, you may not be able to find them because hormone levels are still at a normal stage. Therefore, a gynecological examination is necessary, first with a B-ultrasound, and then a cervical scraping.

"If the menstruation stops suddenly or the menstrual flow gradually decreases, it is unlikely to be caused by other diseases, so you don't need to pay too much attention to it. However, if it is accompanied by other severe menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and insomnia, treatment is required."

The editor hopes that you who are in middle age can pay enough attention to the phenomenon of menstrual disorders occurring in your body and make appropriate adjustments according to your own situation. The relief of the symptoms also means that your body is relieved and your body is developing in a good direction. Naturally, minor ailments and pains will stay away from you.
