The Importance of Regular Check-ups The experience of menstruation varies from woman to woman. Problems such as pain and irregularity are usually the result of natural hormone changes, and do not necessarily signify illness. Below are some of the most common menstrual problems. Painful Periods (Dysmenorrhoea) This is most common in girls or young women. Cramp-like pains are experienced in the lower abdomen at the beginning of a period, which may be accompanied by feelings of being unwell or faint. Symptoms usually pass after a couple of days, and rarely signal an actual illness. Usually, this is caused by a 'tight' cervix (the muscle at the neck of the womb), which normally loosens after the first pregnancy, and thus relieves the problem. Sometimes painful periods are caused by wearing an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) or by menstrual cycles in which no egg is produced. Lack of Periods (Amenorrhoea) This condition is normal during pregnancy and the menopause.

On This Page Defense Tactics A Hormonal Balancing Herbal Help The Chinese Solution ... Supplements for Heavy Bleeding Defense Tactics To help defuse PMS symptoms Foods that contain soy A Hormonal Balancing Act One possible cause of cramps and heavy bleeding during periods is an unbalanced ratio of estrogen to progesterone, says Willow Moore, D.C., N.D., a chiropractor and naturopathic doctor in Owings Mills, Maryland. These are the two hormones that play the biggest part in regulating the female reproductive system. Usually, women who experience problems with their periods have too much estrogen and not enough progesterone in the one to two weeks before their periods. This imbalance can set the stage for painful cramping and heavy flow, along with other unwelcome symptoms such as headaches and mood swings. Supplements that balance estrogen and progesterone can make a big difference in how you feel before and during your period, Herbal Help Licorice works to balance estrogen, says Dr. Aesoph. It can also increase progesterone by inhibiting its breakdown, and it may help prevent bloating. Since high levels of estrogen can cause many menstrual problems

    Extractions: Menstruation is part of a women's life, and it is a healthy phenomenon although healthier have its inconveniences and annoyances during menstruation. Your period should come regularly every 28 days, 3-4 days duration without clotting of blood or so, and the blood you should expect to lose is equivalent to about a quarter of a cup. Some women get irregular periods, or periods that come regularly but with longer intervals in between. Others have a "flood" of blood each month, which makes normal life difficult and potentially embarrassing. A few women have a combination of problems! Unusual periods do not necessarily mean there is anything wrong with you, but may be very annoying. Amenorrhoea…. When periods disappear For more sexually active women in their reproductive years, the absence of periods is a clear signal of pregnancy. And in older non-pregnant women, amenorrhoea may mean that menopause is approaching or has arrived. In both groups of women, amenorrhoea is perfectly normal. However, in some cases amenorrhoea can indicate an underlying medical problem. Primary amenorrhoea is present when a young girl has not started to menstruate even at age 16. This may be because she has some hormonal imbalance or developmental problem, which can often be treated with Homoeopathic medicines. Amenorrhoea, more commonly affects women who have previously had regular menstrual cycles. A variety of reasons can cause secondary amenorrhoea such as hormonal imbalance, excessive exercise, underweight loss or weight gain, stress or discontinuation of the birth control pill.

Fortunately they are usually not serious and are almost always temporary. Becaue they are so common, most women may have their own methods of addressing and dealing with the respective problems, but questions will always comeup. Many treatments exist for each problem, from perscribed medications, to over the counter painkillers, to natural at home remedies. Menstrual Cramps (Dysmenorrhea) Cramps are painful muscle spasms in the lower abdomen, which occur just prior to and during menstrual bleeding. Most women have experienced cramps, which tend to be worse during the first years of menstruation. Multiple causes have been attributed, including high levels of prostaglandin hormones, a narrow opening of the cervix, and a relative lack of blood supply to the muscles of the uterus during cramping. Treatment: Aspirin and ibuprofen both have anti-prostaglandin effects and are especially useful if taken before cramping begins. (Note Tylenol does not have this effect) Calcium and magnesium supplements taken a few days before menstruation is due.

    Extractions: HIV-positive women have reported all types of changes in their periods. This includes irregular periods, more or less frequent periods, heavier or lighter periods, more painful periods and a worsening of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Also, women have reported passing clots or menstrual blood that is darker than usual. The most common menstrual problem reported by HIV-positive women is the loss of their periods altogether. This condition is called Amenorrhea. Women who miss their periods experience pelvic pain, swollen breasts or hot flashes. Heavy periods can result in excessive blood loss, which could lead to low red blood cells or anemia. Anemia can make you feel tired, weak and short of breath. Since HIV infection itself as well as many of the medications used to treat it can also cause anemia, it is important to carefully look for this problem.

How would you prepare for your new life? Most likely, you’d learn everything you could about coping with the cold. And if there was anything you could eat or any supplement you could take to make the experience more pleasant, of course you’d want to know about it. It’s five years of your life, after all. You might as well be comfortable. Maybe you never thought about it, but if you add it up—month after month, year after year—you have your period for about five years of your life. And if you’re like most women, you’d do anything to sail through those days without feeling crampy and exhausted and swollen up like a baby beluga.

    Extractions: Background Goals Any abnormal bleeding over the age of 40 or over the age of 35 in high risk patients should be primarily investigated by evaluation for mechanical causes or cancer. Usually an endometrial biopsy is performed, although imaging techniques such as ultrasound or hysterosongraphy can also be used. Once endometrial cancer is ruled out by biopsy, the patient can be treated with hormonal therapy under the presumption of endocrinological causes of the abnormal bleeding. If there is no response to this however, a direct evaluation of the endometrium such as hysteroscopy should be performed because of the high incidence of polyps and fibroids that disturb the endometrial cavity and may produce abnormal bleeding.

    Extractions: Home About us Articles Books ... Quizzes Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome Review Frederick R. Jelovsek MD After having a tubal ligation, some women will complain of increased menstrual flow or cramps, increased premenstrual syndrome, and gynecological problems in general with even some claims that the sterilization procedure precipitates menopause. The aggregate symptoms are often referred to as post tubal ligation syndrome. Because all outcomes after tubal ligation involve emerging symptoms as a woman gets older, it has been difficult to sort out whether the tubal ligation is the cause of these problems or whether it is just coincidental with the aging process and other decisions or willingness to undergo surgery. Many studies in the literature have looked at this problem and they can be lined up on both sides of the question. Doctors have seemed to focus on the studies that show no difference after tubal ligation and some women's groups, e.g., Vasectomy-Tubal Coalition and have felt this is a biased literature evaluation and that adverse effects are being ignored or hidden from women to make informed choices. With that in mind, and a recent message board question about menopause occurring after a surgery for diagnosis, I thought it would be helpful to review as many abstracts as I could find on Medline addressing this subject. This review has helped answer the following questions:

Question: I have had an irregular menstrual cycle since the start of my period. This has been in my family, as my mother and elder sister also suffered the same. I got treated for it in my teens, but left my treatment incomplete. I got married in March 1998. Now my in-laws also know about it as we had not mentioned the same at the time of marriage. This is causing me stress. Actually, I had been advised by my family doctor (my brother-in-law) that my periods would become regular after marriage.
