Irregular menstruation is a common gynecological condition. It is characterized by abnormalities in the menstrual cycle or bleeding volume, or by abdominal pain and systemic symptoms before or during menstruation. The causes may be due to organic lesions or functional disorders. Many systemic diseases, such as blood disorders, hypertension, liver disease, endocrine disorders, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, reproductive tract infections, tumors (such as ovarian tumors, uterine fibroids), and others, can all cause irregular menstruation. A menstrual cycle every 21 to 35 days is considered normal and regular. If it occurs less or more frequently than this period, it is considered abnormal. The normal amount of bleeding should be less than 80 milliliters. The duration of menstruation varies from person to person, ranging from 2 to 8 days, with an average of 4 or 5 days. If the duration is less than 2 days and the bleeding volume is less than 30 ml, it is usually considered as hypomenorrhea. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to identify the cause and follow medical advice for treatment.
