생리주기 빨라짐If you are a woman, you will have your period regularly once a month. However, some women experience menstrual irregularities such as short menstrual cycles. At first, I thought it might have simply been pushed back by a few days, but I’m worried because even after several months, it’s still the same or even worse.
It’s time to do it… why don’t we do it? Have you ever thought about it?
Women are born with about 2 million primordial follicles. About 30 days later, the ovulation process occurs where the follicle releases an egg and turns into a corpus luteum. The thickened endometrium formed during ovulation is shed and discharged into the blood. This is called menstruation or menstruation. Menstrual phenomena are an important indicator that reflects a woman’s physical condition. Therefore, irregularities in the menstrual cycle are a reason to doubt your health.
An accelerated menstrual cycle is called polymenorrhea: frequent menstruation. Usually, the menstrual cycle is about 28 days and is viewed as +7 or -7 days. A cycle of approximately 21 to 35 days is considered normal. However, if two or more consecutive cycles are outside this range and last less than 21 days, it is considered a situation in which the cause must be checked.
The period between ovulation and the start of the next menstruation is called the ‘luteal phase’. Frequent menstruation is most likely due to a defect in the luteal phase. Follicles are influenced by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) or luteinizing hormone (LH) secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. However, if the secretion of this hormone is unstable, problems with follicle growth occur. In this case, menstruation occurs before the fertilized egg implants in the endometrium, shortening the menstrual cycle.
This is an important signal that can detect hormonal abnormalities.
In the case of luteal phase defects, implantation itself may be difficult, increasing the likelihood of infertility and infertility.
As ovarian function declines, menstrual cycles become shorter. This is because the ‘follicular phase’, the period from the start of menstruation to the day of ovulation, is shortened. A short follicular phase means that the follicle growth rate before ovulation is faster than others, and ovulation itself occurs quickly. Usually, ovulation occurs on the 14th day from the start of menstruation, but if the follicular phase is shortened, ovulation may occur only on the 10th day, shortening the entire cycle.
Deterioration of ovarian function occurs mainly during menopause. If the menstrual cycle becomes shorter and symptoms such as frequent hot flashes on the face and body and frequent mood swings appear at the same time, it can be considered a sign of menopause.
Even in non-menopausal women, if follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels are high or hyperovulation occurs, short menstrual cycles may occur due to decreased ovarian function.
If your menstrual cycle is getting faster and your menstrual flow is increasing at the same time, you should consider the possibility of illness. In this case, a gynecological examination can be used to check for abnormalities in the uterus, ovaries, and other organs to determine the cause affecting the menstrual cycle.
Frequent menstruation may also occur due to inflammation within the uterus, abnormal uterine position, endometrial congestion due to tumor or constipation, and endocrine disorders. If your menstrual pain becomes worse than usual or your cycle changes noticeably, it is a good idea to check your uterine health.
When your body shows red signs, you need to see a specialist.
Checking your regular menstrual cycle, menstrual pain, and amount of menstrual blood is the same as checking your body’s health signals. It can change at any time depending on your condition or body condition, but if your cycle becomes noticeably longer or shorter, your body may be sending a red signal, so it is recommended that you visit a women’s hospital for a diagnosis.
