Patient's question:
I am 20 years old and still in university. Before this, my menstruation was always very regular, but recently, for some reason, my periods have been coming too early or being delayed. Is this considered menstrual irregularity?Doctor's answer:
Excessive menstrual flow or prolonged duration; Menstrual hypomenorrhea, with reduced flow and shorter periods; Menstrual frequency, where the menstrual cycle interval is less than 25 days; Prolonged menstrual cycles, generally referring to intervals longer than 35 days; These conditions all fall under menstrual disorders. If these abnormalities persist for a long time and do not improve after self-regulation, it is necessary to seek medical attention at a formal hospital as soon as possible to avoid causing more serious harm to the body.
