Exploring the menstrual irregularity: A comprehensive study on types and Norms

Abstract

Menstrual irregularities are a common concern among women of reproductive age, impacting their physical and emotional well-being. This review paper provides a comprehensive overview of menstrual irregularities, focusing on their causes, normal values, and classification. We elucidate the normal menstrual cycle parameters and variations, shedding light on what is considered typical for menstrual frequency and flow. To facilitate a clearer understanding, we present a detailed classification of menstrual irregularities, encompassing oligomenorrhea, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, and more. This paper aims to serve as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, and individuals seeking insights into the complex nature of menstrual irregularities, thereby promoting better health awareness and informed decision-making.
