Menstrual disorders

Monthly shedding of a woman's uterine linning.Though this can be uncomfortable and sometimes problematic, it is the body's way of signifying that the reproductive system is functioning properly.
It is common for women to experience menstrul cycle problems
Types
Premenstrual syndrome(PMS)
Is a combination of physical and emotional or mood , disturbances..It occurs after a woman ovulates and is followed by Menstruation..
Common symptoms include depression, irritability, crying, oversensitivity and mood swings.For some women, PMS symptoms can be controlled with lifestyle changes e.g. exercise, nutrition and family support.
Other symptoms include fatigue, gas breast tenderness( mastalgia) acne, and appitet changes with food cravings.
Painful periods( dysmenorrhea) or painful menses, is a common complaint. It may occur as a result of irregular contractions of the utrine muscles.It may have a hormonal basis in its order of development. The problem may be divided into the following categories.
Mechanical dysmenorrhea caused a result of utrine malfunction.
Congestive dysmenorrhea caused due to jamming in the pelvic organs.
Spasmodic dysmenorrhea caused due to contraction of the utrine muscles.
Heavy periods( menorrhagia) is a functional utrine bleeding, it may be caused owing to imbalance in the production of the two female hormones, oestrogen and progesterone. It may also occur due to the gradual failure of the ovarian function.This can sometimes cause excessive bleeding, extended and unusual bleeding, over a span of time, calls for proper clinical evaluation to rule out tumours in the uterus.
Amenorrhoea is lack of menses, or non occurrence of menstrul flow, in post pubertal women.It may also be related to defective ovarian function. This isn't, of course, the rule in all cases . For instance, amenorrhea during pregnancy is a natrul menstrual phenomenon. However an alarm alarm may be sounded when menses fails anytime between menarche , when it first begins and menopause, when it stops.
There are two forms of the disorder, primary and secondary. The former presents itself when menses have never occurred, the latter. when they have appeared, and are subsequently suppressed.
Primary amenorrhea may emerge when There are anatomical problems in the lower genital tract, for example absent uterus or imperforate hymen
Thyroidal problems may be another cause , as also organic diseases, for example, ovarian tumour . The problem may also erupt with no apparent cause. One may connect them to emotional or psychological underpinnings or distress. Other causes may include anaemia, malnutrition and Tuberculosis.
Symptoms are often variable. They may include headache, heaviness of limbs, respiratory distress, acidity or bloating , exhaustion, nosebleed ( vicarious Menstruation ) swelling if lower limbs and palpation.
Infrequent periods( Oligomenorrhea)
This may occur when Menopause approaches . In this condition, periods of normal duration occur less frequently than once every 26_28 days . For some women, infrequent periods are a norm this may be excess  discharge at the time of ovulation
Leucorrhoea may also be caused as a result of bacterial and fungal infection or from inflammatory or malignant( Tumour) changes in the uterus and fallopian or utrine, tubes .
Menopause The word , menopause refers to the permanent cessation of menses ages now days it  may start 30 years to 58 . It's either a result of a normal physiological event or a consequence of surgery or radiation therapy. Menopause may be divided into 1 physiological and 2 physiological Menopause. The former is related to the failure of ovarian function, the latter to the recognition of the fact that a woman's reproductive life is St it's concluding stage . Some women accept this change without worries, others, owing to myths attached to the expected process , develop anxiety and also emotional upheaval.
