What is Anovulatory Menstruation?
A condition where menstruation does not occur regularly due to the failure of an egg to be released from the ovaries. This causes irregular menstruation with skipped months, and can be heavy in nature. The failure of ovulation (egg release) can be caused by hormonal imbalances, being overweight or extremely underweight, thyroid disorders and uncontrolled diabetes to name a few examples.
Typical Symptoms of Anovulatory Menstruation
- Hardly any bleeding during periods
- Long intervals between periods e.g. 39 days or more
- Irregular periods
- Periods that last only 2 days or less
- Periods that last more than 8 days
- Unusual changes in period
- Short interval between periods e.g. 24 days or less
- Difficulty getting pregnant
Diagnostic Questions for Anovulatory Menstruation
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Do you hardly have any bleeding during your periods?
- Is your menstrual cycle infrequent?
- Are your periods irregular?
- Do your periods last only 2 days or less?
- Do your periods last more than 8 days?
Treatment of Anovulatory Menstruation
Treatment depends on the cause, and frequent irregular menstruation should prompt a checkup with an OB/GYN. For many people, losing weight can be helpful.
