Causes of menstrual irregularities in women
Women are not called the weaker sex for nothing. Despite all their resilience, their body reacts extremely sensitively to external and internal stimuli. Long-term exposure to a combination of factors often affects menstruation. Most often, periods are simply delayed, and sometimes they can disappear completely for an indefinite period. However, there may also be other consequences, such as intense pain during menstruation, heavy bleeding, presence in menstrual blood large clots, change in its color, consistency and smell.
In most cases, menstruation can be normalized thanks to proper nutrition, temporary refusal of intense physical activity, reduction in the volume of intellectual work, adherence to sleep and rest regimes. However, these measures help eliminate the problem only if the cause lies in the lifestyle and psycho-emotional sphere. The latter affects hormonal levels and can provoke a disruption in the production of the female sex hormone estrogen. If the cause is more serious, for example, pathology of the reproductive system, it is not easy to restore menstruation. This may take from six months to several years.
When choosing methods to normalize the menstrual cycle, it is important to take into account the woman’s age. For teenage girls in the first year of menstruation, a delay of 2-7 days is considered normal. IN this period is happening hormonal changes, so hormonal levels are constantly changing. Pain during menstruation depends on this. Even with stable cycle due to postponed viral infection, unbalanced diet, emotional and physical overload, periods may disappear for some time. They are adjusted by adjusting the diet and taking vitamins.
For women over 25 years of age, the list of reasons for menstrual irregularities is much wider. Among them:
- Endometriosis is a disease in which endometrial cells (the inner lining of the uterus) grow outside of the uterus. With heavy periods, the suspicion of this disease increases.
- Imbalance of sex hormones. The reason is genetic predisposition or external factors. Normally, in the fair sex, estrogen production exceeds testosterone production. A bias towards the second can reduce menstruation. The same disease is diagnosed with painful periods that occur with long (several months) breaks.
- Polycystic syndrome is a change in the structure of ovarian tissue (a dense white shell). The influence of the disease extends not only to the condition of the ovaries, but also to the entire body. At the central level nervous system pathology affects the interaction between the hypothalamus and pituitary gland with the adrenal glands and ovaries.
- Ovarian cyst. The disease makes itself felt as pronounced premenstrual syndrome ( painful sensations in the lower back, nagging pain lower abdomen, mood swings), and delays.
- Pathologies of the thyroid gland. The latter is responsible for all types of metabolic processes, so any violation leads to a set overweight or vice versa its loss. This increases estrogen production. Main symptom diseases of the reproductive system - heavy bleeding, including during the phases of the cycle.
The benefits of vitamins for the menstrual cycle
