Menstrual Health

Your menstrual cycle is a natural rhythm of your body—but when it becomes irregular, painful, or unusually heavy, it can disrupt your everyday life. At Butterfly Hospitals, we understand that every woman’s experience is unique, and we’re here to offer sensitive, expert care to help you feel your best again.

What Is Abnormal Menstruation?

Abnormal menstruation refers to any disruption in the regularity, flow, or symptoms of your period. If your cycle occurs more frequently than every 21 days or less often than every 35 days—or lasts longer than 7 days—it may be a sign that something needs attention. Many women also experience excessive bleeding, intense cramps, or discomfort due to underlying conditions like fibroids, PCOS, or hormonal imbalances.

Types of Menstrual Disorders We Treat

  • Amenorrhea: When periods stop unexpectedly despite not being pregnant, breastfeeding, or menopausal.
  • Dysmenorrhea: Painful, cramp-filled periods that interfere with daily activities.
  • Oligomenorrhea: Infrequent or light menstrual cycles, sometimes a symptom of underlying hormonal issues.
  • Symptoms That Shouldn’t Be Ignored
  • Bleeding between periods or after intercourse
  • Periods lasting more than 7 days
  • Heavy bleeding with clots larger than 2.5 cm
  • Severe cramps, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
  • Vaginal discharge with an unusual or foul smell
  • Missing your period for 90+ days (without pregnancy)

What Could Be Causing It?

  • Abnormal menstruation can be triggered by lifestyle changes or deeper medical conditions such as:
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
  • Fibroids or uterine polyps
  • Endometriosis
  • Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
  • Thyroid disorders
  • Hormonal imbalances or lack of ovulation
  • Side effects of certain birth control methods
  • Adenomyosis
  • Early miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy

When to See a Gynecologist

If your symptoms are interfering with daily life, causing severe discomfort, or you notice unusual patterns like foul discharge or high fever, it’s time to consult a specialist. Early diagnosis can make all the difference in your long-term reproductive health.
