Patient's question:
Now the menstrual cycle is completely chaotic. I've had two periods this month, and the flow is very heavy, making me feel a bit dizzy. Previously, my periods were mostly comfortable, but now when they come, I feel a head full of pressure, as if I'm choking on water.Hello, regarding this situation, is it considered menstrual irregularity or something else?
Doctor's answer:
It is menstrual irregularity, but the underlying cause needs to be identified. Your age, recurring menstrual irregularity cannot be ruled out as a possibility of endometrial hyperplasia or uterine fibroids. Recurring head discomfort cannot be ruled out as a possibility of recurrent anemia. Therefore, it is recommended to follow up for an abdominal ultrasound to confirm the cause. If it is uterine fibroids, surgical treatment may be necessary for severe cases.
