What are the reasons for irregular menstruation with the period coming one week earlier?

Patient's question:

Irregular menstruation, period starts a week early, light flow with red color, irritability during period with abdominal pain, poor sleep. Yellow discharge with excessive amount and slight odor, what's wrong?

Doctor's answer:

Menstruation one week early is still considered normal. There are abnormal vaginal secretions. You can check if you have vaginitis. Usually, it suggests bacterial vaginosis or trichomoniasis. If the vaginal discharge test shows inflammation, treatment is still needed. Wait until your period ends to get tested again, usually 3 to 7 days after the period. You can first get tested and treat vaginitis, which may also reduce abdominal pain. Additionally, if your period keeps coming early, you can check the six female hormones to see if there is a deficiency in estrogen and progesterone secretion.
