Symptoms of irregular menstruation

I believe that every female has experienced irregular menstruation. The reason for irregular menstruation is because there is a problem with our body's endocrine system, which leads to irregular menstruation such as too much or too little menstruation, faster or delayed menstruation. So what are the symptoms of irregular menstruation? This is what I’m going to introduce to you below, let’s take a look.

Irregular uterine bleeding. Includes: heavy or prolonged menstrual periods. It is common in uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps, endometrial hyperplasia, endometriosis, etc.; scanty menstruation, with both small menstrual volume and menstrual period; frequent menstruation, i.e. the menstrual interval is less than 25 days; prolonged menstrual cycle, i.e. the menstrual interval is longer than 35 days; irregular bleeding, which can be caused by various reasons, and the bleeding has no regularity at all. The above situations may be caused by local causes, endocrine causes or systemic diseases.

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding. It refers to abnormal uterine bleeding caused by endocrine regulation system disorders without obvious organic lesions in the internal and external genitalia. It is the most common type of menstrual disorder and is common in adolescence and menopause. It is divided into two categories: ovulatory and anovulatory. About 85% of cases are anovulatory functional uterine bleeding.

Vaginal bleeding after menopause. It refers to bleeding 6 months after menstruation stops, often caused by malignant tumors, inflammation, etc.

amenorrhea. It refers to the absence of menstruation or the cessation of menstrual cycle for more than 3 cycles after it has been established. The former is primary amenorrhea and the latter is secondary amenorrhea.

Premenstrual syndrome: a series of abnormal symptoms that a small number of women experience before menstruation, such as mental tension, emotional instability, inattention, irritability, depression, insomnia, headache, breast tenderness, etc. It is mostly caused by sex hormone metabolism disorders and mental factors. The treatment is mainly based on proper rest. Sedatives and diuretics can be used when necessary. Anti-estrogen therapies such as progestins, androgens, and bromocriptine can also be used.

Irregular diet, drastic mood swings, some bad living habits, etc. can all cause irregular menstruation. Irregular menstruation will directly affect our body's ovulation cycle, so I hope everyone can pay attention to this issue. If you are really worried, you can go to the hospital for a check-up.
