Irregular periods, heavy bleeding, painful cycles.
Menstrual disorders refer to problems related to your monthly periods - including irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, missed periods, or severe pain. While many women ignore these issues thinking they are “normal,” persistent changes in your cycle often indicate an underlying hormonal or gynecological condition.
If your periods are unpredictable, too painful, or affecting your daily life, it is important to understand the cause and seek the right treatment early. This guide explains common menstrual problems, why they happen, and how they can be managed effectively, so you can take control of your reproductive health with confidence.
A menstrual disorder is any condition that affects the timing, flow, or comfort of your periods.
Your menstrual cycle is a key indicator of your overall hormonal and reproductive health.
Understanding your symptoms helps in identifying the right condition early.
Irregular Periods: Cycles that vary each month or skip frequently
Heavy Periods (Menorrhagia): Excessive bleeding during periods
Painful Periods (Dysmenorrhea): Severe cramps during menstruation
Missed Periods (Amenorrhea): Absence of periods
