Understanding Abnormal Periods
An abnormal period is any menstrual cycle that falls outside of the typical range for frequency, duration, or flow. Common signs of abnormal periods include:
• Irregular Cycles: Periods that are unpredictable or more than 35 days apart.
• Heavy Bleeding: Excessive menstrual flow (menorrhagia) that lasts more than 7 days or requires frequent pad or tampon changes.
• Missed Periods: Skipping periods for months without pregnancy (amenorrhea).
• Spotting or Bleeding Between Cycles: Unusual bleeding outside of your regular period.
Common causes of abnormal periods include:
Hormonal Imbalances
Conditions like PCOS or thyroid disorders can disrupt hormone regulation and affect your cycle.
Uterine Fibroids or Polyps
Noncancerous growths in the uterus can lead to heavy or prolonged bleeding.
Endometriosis
Tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing painful periods and irregular bleeding.
Perimenopause
The transition to menopause can bring hormonal fluctuations that cause irregular cycles.
Stress and Lifestyle Factors
Chronic stress, significant weight changes, and over-exercising can impact your menstrual health.

Common Diagnoses for Abnormal Periods
Identifying the root cause of abnormal periods is key to effective treatment. Some of the most common diagnoses include:
• Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A hormonal disorder causing irregular ovulation and excessive androgen levels.
• Hypothyroidism or Hyperthyroidism: An underactive or overactive thyroid gland that disrupts menstrual cycles.
• Endometriosis: Painful periods caused by uterine-like tissue growing outside the uterus.
• Uterine Fibroids: Benign growths in the uterus leading to heavy bleeding and pelvic pain.
• Premature Ovarian Insufficiency: Early decline in ovarian function, causing irregular or missed periods.
• Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): Infections that can lead to scarring and cycle irregularities.
