Patient's question:
I am 28 years old, female. I used to have very regular periods, but recently, for some reason, they have been getting more and more irregular. The timing, flow, and color are all off. Could it be that I have some kind of disease? Please ask: How should irregular periods be treated?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation is characterized by abnormal menstrual cycles or bleeding amounts, or by abdominal pain and systemic symptoms before or during menstruation. There are many causes of irregular menstruation, including polycystic ovary syndrome, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, endocrine disorders, psychological factors, excessive dieting, and overexertion. Irregular menstruation can affect childbirth. It is recommended that you identify the specific cause and then receive scientific, targeted treatment, which will be very effective. Daily routines should be regular, adequate warmth should be maintained, light and soft foods should be consumed, ventilation should be frequent, and plenty of hot water should be drunk to ensure that the condition does not recur.
