Irregular periods can happen because of stress, PCOS, thyroid imbalance, weight changes, puberty, perimenopause, pregnancy, or other hormonal issues. If your cycle is repeatedly delayed, very frequent, unusually heavy, or painful, you should book a gynecology consultation rather than ignoring it.
Irregular periods include cycles that vary widely in timing, bleeding that is unusually heavy, long gaps between periods, or bleeding between periods. The concern increases when the pattern is new, persistent, or associated with pain or weakness.
PCOS is one of the most common causes, but thyroid disease, pregnancy-related problems, hormone imbalance, sudden weight change, and perimenopause can also play a role. A proper evaluation helps distinguish between temporary changes and a pattern that needs treatment.
Heavy bleeding with dizziness, severe pain, fainting, pregnancy with bleeding, or bleeding after long absence should be assessed promptly. These situations may require urgent evaluation.
