Patient's question:
The doctor has recently noticed that her menstrual cycle has been irregular, with delays and shortenings. Sometimes it's delayed by a dozen days, and other times it's longer by three or four days compared to before. Is this what's called menstrual irregularity? What are the main reasons for this? What should I pay attention to? I want to understand about menstrual irregularity.Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is necessary to consider menstrual disorders. There are several reasons that can lead to menstrual disorders, such as: vaginitis, other gynecological infections, emotions, excessive stress, environmental factors, drug effects, endocrine disorders, changes in lifestyle, and other factors, all of which may trigger menstrual disorders. It is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant examinations, such as gynecological examinations, ultrasound, and six sex hormone tests, to conduct a thorough check before making symptomatic treatment.
