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

  • Abnormal menstrual cycles e.g. too early or too late

  • Periods last only 2 days or less

  • Short interval between periods e.g. 24 days or less

  • Difficulty getting pregnant

  • Bleeding in between menstrual cycles / periods or after menopause

  • Mental stress or physical exhaustion

Doctor's Diagnostic Questionson Anovulatory Menstruation

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Do you experience minimal blood loss during your periods?

  • Is your menstrual cycle infrequent?

  • Do you have irregular periods?

  • Do your periods typically last two days or less?

  • Is your menstrual cycle less than 24 days?

Treatmentof Anovulatory Menstruation
