Issues with period pains and other period problems are very common among women of up to middle age and beyond. These problems can include unstable or irregular periods, and unpredictable dates and unpredictable cycle patterns which can really upset normal life activities. The usual cycle time will tend to vary between 25 and 33 days with very few women having the precise 28 day cycle. Most often this variability is down to hormonal imbalance with regards the estrogen/progesterone cycle. And when it comes to teenage girls, add in the fact that they will have to deal with menstruation. Its a milestone in a young ladies life but at the same time it can cause confusion and even more so if the periods are irregular and/or painful. Let us look at some common menstruation problems: Dysmenorrhea is often due to a hormonal imbalance which brings about uterine contractions and sometimes severe cramps. It is thought that one of the causes is down to prostaglandins building up in the uterine lining. Not at all a pleasant experience! Dysmenhorrhea is very common, particularly among young ladies. Primary dysmenhorrhea is where a normal menses is painful whereby the womb is squeezed by the muscles which can then affect blood flow to the uterus thus causing cramps and pain. Often menses pain ceases after child birth. Secondary dysmenhorrhea is where periodic pain is caused by reproductive problems such as endometriosis. Dilation and curettage (D&C) is carried out on ladies to scrape the lining of the womb away. Menstruation can then take place afterwards but often tends to heal fairly soon after. Late periods can be due to a late menses caused by recent sexual activity. Its easy to assume this to be the symptoms of pregnancy but often this is not the case. Late periods can also be common with some ladies for genetic reasons. Menorrhagia or heavy periods can be induced by fibroids - a uterine tumor. Physical diseases can also bring on menorrhagia such as thyroid under function (also called myxoedema). Under function in a thyroid gland can induce excessive body weight.
