Does irregular menstruation affect the chances of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I haven't had regular periods for the past two years, and the timing of each menstrual cycle is inconsistent. Now that I'm trying to conceive with my husband, it's been a while, but I haven't gotten pregnant yet. Does irregular menstruation affect the chances of getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation can interfere with getting pregnant. Considering irregular menstruation may lead to irregular menopause and potentially ovulatory dysfunction, it is first recommended to check if menopause is normal. If menopause is normal, there is still a possibility of getting pregnant. In the case of normal menopause, it is advised to monitor ovulation via ultrasound to schedule intercourse and reduce the chances of delivery. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
