Irregular Menstruation Or Irregular Periods

Irregular Menstruation Or Irregular Periods

Description

If the time between your periods begins (the length of your menstrual cycle) varies, you have irregular periods. You could have early or late periods. Menstrual cycles typically last 28 days, though they might be a little shorter or longer than that. Women’s irregular periods are typically caused by hypothyroidism and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Restoring the body’s hormonal balance is the main objective of treatment. Your doctor might advise birth control pills or other hormones to start your period if you have PCOS.

Not all irregular menstrual periods have an impact on fertility. In actuality, a lot of women with irregular menstrual periods conceive and have healthy children. Therefore, the answer to the question of whether irregular periods indicate infertility is no. However, this may make it more difficult for you to become pregnant.

Treatments

controlling the menstrual cycle

To control heavy bleeding, doctors may prescribe hormones like progestin or estrogen.

pain reduction

Taking an over-the-counter pain treatment like ibuprofen or acetaminophen may help with mild to moderate discomfort or cramps. Aspirin is not advised since it could result in more severe bleeding. Using a heating pad or a warm bath or shower can help ease cramps.
