Why does menstrual irregularity cause inflammation?

Patient's question:

Before giving birth, my menstrual cycle was irregular, but after having the baby, it has been quite regular these last two years, though a bit shorter. Before, it lasted for 5 days, but now it only lasts for 3. However, in the past three months, my menstrual cycle has become irregular again, and I also have inflammation. What should I do? Taking care of the child every day is exhausting, not to mention the inflammation.

Doctor's answer:

If menstrual irregularities occur, it is difficult to conceive. Currently, with gynecological inflammation, it is necessary to undergo a thorough examination and actively treat the inflammation before regulating the menstrual cycle. If you feel tired every day and frequently work overtime taking care of children, it can easily lead to menstrual disorders and also increase the risk of recurrent candidal vaginitis. It is recommended to first have a gynecological examination and a cervical examination to diagnose the type of inflammation and actively treat it. During the next menstrual period, undergo a sex hormone six-item test, and after the period, have a gynecological ultrasound under the guidance of a doctor to regulate the menstrual cycle with medication.
