What Is Menstrual Disorders
Menstrual disorders refer to irregularities or abnormalities in a woman’s menstrual cycle, including heavy bleeding, missed periods, painful cramps, or unusual cycle lengths. These issues can be caused by hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, or reproductive health disorders.
Symptoms of Menstrual Disorders ?
If you have Menstrual Disorders, you may experience the following:
- Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (Menorrhagia) – Excessive bleeding during periods.
- Painful Periods (Dysmenorrhea) – Severe cramps and discomfort
- Irregular Periods – Unpredictable cycles or missed periods
- Absent Periods (Amenorrhea) – No periods for months or longer
- Frequent Periods (Polymenorrhea) – Cycles occurring too frequently.

- Intermenstrual Bleeding – Spotting between periods.
- Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) & Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) – Mood swings, bloating, fatigue, and severe emotional symptoms before menstruation
Why Do Menstrual Disorders Happen?
Several factors can contribute to irregular or problematic periods:
1. Hormonal Imbalances – Fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone.
2. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) – A common hormonal disorder affecting ovulation.
3.Thyroid Disorders – Overactive or underactive thyroid glands can disrupt the cycle.
4.Uterine Fibroids & Polyps – Non-cancerous growths in the uterus causing heavy bleeding.
5.Endometriosis – A painful condition where uterine tissue grows outside the uterus.
6.Pelvic Infections (PID) – Bacterial infections affecting reproductive organs.
7.Chronic Stress & Lifestyle Factors – Poor diet, excessive exercise, or stress can disrupt periods.
8.Medications & Birth Control – Some medications or contraceptive methods can alter menstrual cycles.
9.Perimenopause & Menopause – Natural hormonal changes as women age.
