Causes of irregular menstruation

I believe that every woman has experienced irregular menstruation, but if it is only an occasional abnormality, it will not affect the physical health of women. However, if the irregular menstruation lasts for a long time, it is very likely caused by some diseases. If it is not treated in time, it may even affect women's future fertility. Therefore, it is very important to understand the causes of irregular menstruation and provide targeted treatment.

There are generally two reasons for irregular menstruation. One is external factors, such as irregular diet or mood swings. The other is internal factors, that is, women themselves suffer from some diseases, such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, etc., which can lead to irregular menstruation. The specific reasons are as follows:

Caused by organic diseases or drugs, etc.: The causes of this type of menstrual disorder include local inflammation, tumors and developmental abnormalities of the reproductive organs, malnutrition; intracranial diseases; other endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, etc.; liver diseases; blood diseases, etc. Menstrual irregularities may occur in women who use drugs to treat mental illnesses, endocrine preparations, or intrauterine devices for contraception. Certain occupations, such as long-distance runners, are prone to amenorrhea. In addition, some abnormal bleeding during pregnancy is often mistaken for menstrual irregularities.

Abnormal emotions are also a cause of menstrual disorders: abnormal emotions, long-term mental depression, sulking, or suffering from major mental stimulation and psychological trauma can lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea. This is because menstruation is caused by the stimulation of the endometrium by hormones secreted by the ovaries, and the hormones secreted by the ovaries are controlled by the release of hormones from the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Therefore, any abnormality in the function of the ovaries, pituitary gland, or hypothalamus will affect menstruation.

The above is a detailed introduction to the causes of irregular menstruation. In fact, no matter what causes irregular menstruation in women, if this happens, you must adjust your body in time. If it is caused by a disease, you must treat the disease in time.
