Irregular Menstrual Periods

📋Overview

Irregular Menstrual Periods are characterized by cycle lengths that frequently change, often falling outside the typical range of 24 to 35 days. This condition is generally viewed as a clinical symptom rather than a specific diagnosis, representing variations in the interval between periods or the consistency of menstrual flow.

The clinical approach to these irregularities focuses on identifying underlying physiological factors, such as hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, or ovulatory dysfunction. While these variations are frequently observed during puberty or the transition to menopause, they may also be associated with conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
