Menstrual disorders such as abnormally heavy, long or light periods; pelvic pain and cramping; and lack of menstruation can be tied to a wide range of treatable causes. These causes include but are not necessary limited to hormonal dysfunction, clotting disorders such as Von Willebrand disease, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, endometrial polyps and, rarely, uterine cancer. Left untreated, some such disorders can lead to anemia, osteoporosis and fertility problems. If you think you may have a menstrual disorder, talk to your doctor about effective and non- or minimally invasive treatments including lifestyle changes, oral medications such as pain relievers and contraceptives, and surgical procedures such as endometrial ablation, laparoscopic uterine nerve ablation, hysterectomy and more.
