Menstrual Health
Menstrual health is a vital part of women’s overall well-being and reproductive health. A normal cycle usually occurs every 21–35 days, lasting 3–7 days, and reflects the body’s natural hormonal balance. Good menstrual health means maintaining regular cycles, managing symptoms, and practicing safe hygiene to prevent infections and discomfort.
When periods are irregular, too painful, or involve heavy bleeding, they may signal conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, or thyroid imbalance. Seeking timely medical care ensures early diagnosis and effective treatment. With proper guidance, lifestyle changes, and support, women can manage their cycles more comfortably and protect their long-term fertility and wellness.
Common Menstrual Health Concerns We Address
Every woman’s cycle is unique, and so are the challenges she may face. Our clinic provides specialized care for a wide range of menstrual issues, such as:
Irregular Periods – Cycles that come too early, too late, or unpredictably, often linked to hormonal changes, thyroid issues, or lifestyle factors.
Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (Menorrhagia) – Excessive bleeding that may cause weakness, fatigue, or anemia, affecting daily life.
Painful Periods (Dysmenorrhea) – Severe cramps that make it difficult to work, study, or carry out normal activities.
Amenorrhea – The absence of periods for several months without pregnancy, which could indicate hormonal imbalance, stress, or other health concerns.
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) & PMDD – Physical discomfort, mood swings, irritability, or depression before periods, which can significantly affect emotional health.
Spotting Between Periods – Unusual bleeding outside the normal cycle, which sometimes signals infections, fibroids, or hormonal disruptions.
Not every irregularity is serious — but if menstrual problems are persistent or worsening, expert evaluation is essential.
Diagnosis and Medical Evaluation
A correct diagnosis is the first and most important step in managing menstrual concerns. At Dr. Meenu’s clinic, we combine advanced technology with thorough consultations to ensure accurate assessment. Depending on your symptoms, your evaluation may include:
Physical Examination – To check for visible or palpable changes in the reproductive system.
Ultrasound Scans – To detect fibroids, polyps, ovarian cysts, or uterine abnormalities.
Hormonal Blood Tests – To identify imbalances such as PCOS, thyroid issues, or reproductive hormone disorders.
Endometrial Biopsy – When needed, to rule out conditions like endometrial hyperplasia or precancerous changes.
Cycle Tracking & Symptom Journals – To get a clear picture of menstrual patterns and triggers.
This comprehensive approach helps us find the cause quickly and plan an effective treatment for long-term relief.
Treatment Options for Menstrual Health
Treatment at our clinic is personalized to each woman’s needs, focusing not only on relieving symptoms but also addressing the root cause. Options may include:
Lifestyle Modifications – Guidance on diet, exercise, stress management, and sleep, which are powerful tools for restoring hormonal balance.
Medications – From simple pain relievers to hormonal therapies like oral contraceptives or progesterone support, depending on the condition.
Minimally Invasive Procedures – For structural issues such as fibroids, cysts, or polyps, we use advanced methods like laparoscopy or hysteroscopy.
Nutritional Support – Tailored diet plans and supplements to correct deficiencies (like iron in cases of anemia due to heavy bleeding).
Counseling & Emotional Support – For PMS, PMDD, or menstrual-related anxiety, we provide compassionate guidance to support mental well-being.
Our ultimate aim is to make periods healthier, more predictable, and far less disruptive — so women can live their lives with energy and confidence.
