1. What examinations should be done for irregular menstruation

2. Causes of irregular menstruation

1. Menstrual disorders are not necessarily gynecological diseases

Normal menstruation is an important sign of physical health for mature women. When many women have menstrual disorders, they only consider gynecological diseases such as uterine hypoplasia, acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine fibroids, etc., but ignore looking for causes outside the uterus. They don’t know that many bad habits and factors may also lead to menstrual disorders.

2. Abnormal emotions cause menstrual disorders

Abnormal emotions, long-term mental depression, sulking, or suffering from major mental stimulation and psychological trauma can all lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea, or amenorrhea. This is because menstruation is formed after the hormones secreted by the ovaries stimulate the endometrium, 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.

3. Cold stimulation causes oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea

Irregular daily life: According to research, women exposed to cold stimulation during menstruation will cause excessive contraction of blood vessels in the pelvis, which can cause oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, women should have a regular daily life and avoid excessive fatigue, especially during menstruation, to keep away cold and moisture.
