Is a menstrual cycle of 9 days considered menstrual irregularity?

Patient's question:

I usually finish my period in 9 days. Does that count as irregular menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your situation, this falls under menstrual irregularity. The causes of menstrual irregularity can be divided into two major categories:
1. Neuroendocrine dysfunction-induced: This primarily involves instability or defects in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which is known as menstrual disorders.
2. Organic lesions or drug-induced: This includes local inflammation of the reproductive organs, among other factors. Since the underlying causes differ, the treatment methods also vary.
It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for examination and receive symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
