Menstrual health is a crucial part of every woman’s overall well-being. Yet many women silently endure irregularities and discomfort without seeking proper medical attention. At Divya Clinic and Diagnostic Center, Janakpur, we encourage women to speak up, understand their bodies, and access expert care.
In this article, we explore four common menstrual disorders that affect women of all ages — their causes, symptoms, and available treatments.
Oligomenorrhea: Infrequent periods (cycle > 35 days)
Amenorrhea: Absence of periods for 3+ months
Hormonal imbalances (thyroid issues, PCOS)
Stress or eating disorders
Weight changes (underweight or obesity)
Certain medications or birth control use
Missed or delayed periods
Changes in flow or duration
Infertility or difficulty conceiving
Hormonal therapy (e.g., progesterone)
Treat underlying cause (e.g., PCOS, thyroid)
Lifestyle and diet modifications
Excessive blood loss during periods (changing pads every 1–2 hours, prolonged bleeding > 7 days).
Uterine fibroids or polyps
Hormonal imbalances
Blood clotting disorders
Thyroid dysfunction or IUD use
Soaking through pads quickly
Clots in menstrual blood
Fatigue or anemia symptoms (dizziness, weakness)
Iron supplements for anemia
Hormonal medications or antifibrinolytics

Surgery (D&C, myomectomy) in severe cases
Severe cramping and pelvic pain during menstruation, sometimes radiating to the back or thighs.
Primary dysmenorrhea (no disease — just strong contractions)
Secondary dysmenorrhea (caused by endometriosis, fibroids, PID)
Pain before or during periods
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
Impact on daily life or work
Pain relief (NSAIDs like ibuprofen)

PMS includes mood swings, irritability, fatigue, and bloating before periods. PMDD is a more severe form with depression and anxiety.
Hormonal fluctuations during the menstrual cycle
Serotonin changes in the brain
Stress, poor diet, or lack of sleep
Mood changes, anger, anxiety

SSRIs (antidepressants) for PMDD
Hormonal therapy (pills or patches)
If your cycles are persistently irregular

You don't have to live in discomfort. Menstrual disorders are common, manageable, and treatable with the right care.
