1 Stress And Lifestyle Factors.
Gaining or losing a significant amount of weight,dieting,changes in exercise routines,travel,illness or other disruptions in a woman's daily routine can have an impact on her menstrual cycle.
2 Birth Control Pills.
Most birth control pills contain a combination of the hormones estrogen and progestin(some contain progestin alone.) The pills prevent pregnancy by keeping the ovaries from releasing eggs.Going on or off birth control pills can affect menstruation.some women have irregular or mixed periods for up to six months after discontinuing birth control pills. This is an important consideration when you are planning on conception and becoming pregnant.women who take birth control pills that contain progestin only may have bleeding between periods.
3 Uterine Polyps or Fibroids.
Uterine polyps are small benign(noncancerous)growths in the lining of the uterus.uterine fibroids are tumors that attach to the wall of the uterus.They may be one or several fibroids that range from as small as an apple seed to the size of a grape fruit. These tumors are usually benign,but they may cause heavy bleeding and pain during periods.
If the fibroids are large,they might put pressure on the bladder or rectum,causing discomfort.
4 Endometriosis.
The endometrial tissue that lines the uterus breaks down every month and is discharged with the menstrual flow.
Endometriosis occurs when the endomentrial tissues starts to grow outside the uterus.often,the endomentrial tissue attached itself to the ovaries or fallopian tubes,it sometimes grows on the intestines or other organs in the lower digestive tract and in the area between your rectum and uterus.
Endometriosis may cause abnormal bleeding,cramps or pain before and during periods and painful intercourse.
5 Pelvic Inflammatory Diseases.
Pelvic inflammatory diseases(PID) is a bacterial infection that affects the female reproductive system. Bacteria may enter the vagina through sexual contact and then spread to the uterus and upper genital tract. Bacteria might also enter the reproductive tract through gynecologic procedures or through childbirth, miscarriage,or abortion.symptoms of PID includes a heavy vaginal discharge with unpleasant odor, irregular periods,pain in the pelvis and lower abdominal areas,fever, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.
6 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
In Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS),the ovaries make large amount of androgens which are male hormones.small fluid filled sacs(cysts) may form in the ovaries. The hormonal changes can prevent eggs from maturing,and so ovulation may not take place consistently.sometimes a woman with polycystic ovary syndrome will have irregular periods or stop menstruating completely.in addition,the condition is associated with obesity, infertility and hirsutism (excessive hair growth and acne).This condition may be caused by a hormonal imbalance, although the exact cause is unknown.
7 Premature Ovarian Insufficiency.
This condition occurs in women under age 40 whose ovaries do not function normally.The menstrual cycle stops, similar to menopause.This can occur in patients who are being treated for cancer with chemotherapy and radiation,or if you have a family history of premature ovarian Insufficiency or certain chromosomal abnormalities.
Other causes of abnormal menstruation includes
8 Uterine cancer or Cervical cancer.
9 Medications,such as; steroids or anticoagulant drugs(blood thinners).
10 Medical conditions,such as bleeding disorders,an under or over active thyroid gland,or pituitary disorders that affect hormonal balance.
11 Complications associated with pregnancy,including miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy (the fertilized egg is implanted outside the uterus,for example,within the fallopian tube).
If these conditions occurs or persist, it's important you seek for medical attention.it can always be addressed.
