Cycle and bleeding disorders are among the most common reasons why women visit a gynecologist's office. The female cycle is a finely tuned interplay of hormonal processes that can vary greatly from individual to individual. Nevertheless, there are certain regularities from which significant deviations can indicate a disorder. If menstruation is too infrequent, too frequent or irregular, is completely absent or is unusually heavy or painful, this should be clarified medically.
Cycle disorders refer to changes in the frequency or regularity of menstruation. For example, bleeding may occur at very short intervals or the cycle may drag on for many weeks or even months. A complete absence of menstruation over several months is also possible. These changes can have both hormonal and organic causes and are not always harmless. In certain cases, a disrupted cycle can indicate diseases of the thyroid gland, metabolism, brain or ovaries. Stress, heavy physical exertion or a very low body fat mass can also have an influence.
Bleeding disorders mainly affect the intensity or duration of menstruation. Particularly heavy periods (menorrhagia), very prolonged bleeding or bleeding between periods can indicate fibroids, polyps or hormonal imbalances. Endometriosis or coagulation disorders should also be considered if the symptoms are severe. In addition, very painful bleeding can be an indication of an underlying gynecological disease that requires targeted treatment.
Particular attention should be paid to bleeding after the menopause. As hormonal activity decreases significantly in this phase of life, the occurrence of bleeding outside the natural cycle years is always a warning sign. Such bleeding should be investigated quickly and thoroughly in order to identify or rule out serious causes such as mucosal changes or tumors at an early stage.
