For many women, a menstrual cycle is just a monthly routine to manage. However, when your periods become unpredictable—skipping months, arriving too early, or lasting far longer than usual—your body is trying to communicate something vital. At Hiremath Maternity Hospital, we believe that understanding these signals is the first step toward better health and a successful path to motherhood.
If you have been searching for a trusted gynecologist in PCMC to help navigate these concerns, here is what you need to know about the connection between irregular cycles and your reproductive future.
What Makes a Cycle “Irregular”?
While a “perfect” 28-day cycle is often cited, a healthy range is actually between 21 to 35 days. Variation of a few days is normal. You should consider visiting a specialist if you experience:
-
Amenorrhea: Periods that have stopped completely for three months or more (and you aren’t pregnant).
-
Oligomenorrhea: Infrequent periods where cycles regularly last longer than 35 days.
-
Cycles under 21 days: Frequent periods can signal a low ovarian reserve.
-
Abnormal Bleeding: Unusually heavy flow, spotting between cycles, or bleeding that lasts longer than 7 days.
The Link to Infertility
Irregular periods are not just a scheduling nuisance; they account for 30% to 40% of all female infertility cases. The primary reason is that an irregular period usually indicates that you are not ovulating predictably. Without the release of a mature egg, natural conception cannot occur.
Common causes we treat at our center include:
-
PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome): A leading cause of hormonal imbalance and irregular ovulation.
-
Thyroid Disorders: Both an overactive and underactive thyroid can disrupt your cycle.
-
Stress & Lifestyle: High stress, extreme weight changes, and excessive exercise can “turn off” the hormones needed for ovulation.
