Patient's question:
I have irregular menstruation, and it hasn't stopped for over ten days. Since last year, I've been to the doctor, but they couldn't find anything. It eventually got better over time. This year, it's happening again.Doctor's answer:
Hello! The causes of menstrual disorders 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, tumors, and developmental abnormalities of the reproductive organs; malnutrition; intracranial disorders; other endocrine dysfunctions such as abnormal thyroid or adrenal cortex function, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, etc.; liver diseases; blood disorders, etc. The use of psychiatric medications; endocrine preparations; or the use of intrauterine devices (IUDs) for contraception may also lead to menstrual disorders.
