Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 26 years old this year, and I have had irregular menstruation for about 2 years. Is it not normal? Due to work reasons, I have been quite busy and haven't paid much attention to it, but I am still very worried now and want to get proper treatment. Hello, what factors can cause irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
First, excessive pressure from work and life can lead to neurasthenia, while bad habits like staying up late and irregular sleep schedules can cause endocrine disorders, which in turn can result in menstrual irregularities.Second, if one is in a long-term negative emotional state, this can also affect menstruation to some extent, as it may harm the hypothalamus and subsequently impact ovarian hormone secretion, potentially leading to menopause.
Third, if a person has undergone an induced abortion, the endometrium may be damaged and difficult to repair, becoming thin, which could lead to conditions like amenorrhea and infertility.
Additionally, issues such as uterine fibroids, hyperthyroidism, or problems with IUDs can also affect menstruation to some degree.
