Full textAbstract:
Menstrual disorders are abnormalities that occur in the menstrual cycle. There are various menstrual disorders that women can experience, ranging from too little or too much menstrual blood, painful menstruation, to depression before menstruation or premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Physical activity is divided into three levels, namely light, moderate and heavy physical activity. Physical activity of heavy intensity can cause physiological disorders of the menstrual cycle. presence of menstruation (amenorrhoea), thinning of the bones (osteoporosis), menstrual irregularities or intermenstrual bleeding, abnormal growth of the uterine wall, and infertility.

Objective To analyse the progression of body mass index in eating disorders and to determine the percentile for establishment and resolution of the disease.Methods A retrospective descriptive cross-sectional study. Review of clinical files of adolescents with eating disorders.Results Of the 62 female adolescents studied with eating disorders, 51 presented with eating disorder not otherwise specified, 10 anorexia nervosa, and 1 bulimia nervosa. Twenty-one of these adolescents had menstrual disorders; in that, 14 secondary amenorrhea and 7 menstrual irregularities (6 eating disorder not otherwise specified, and 1 bulimia nervosa). In average, in anorectic adolescents, the initial body mass index was in 75thpercentile; secondary amenorrhea was established 1 month after onset of the disease; minimum weight was 76.6% of ideal body mass index (at 4th percentile) at 10.2 months of disease; and resolution of amenorrhea occurred at 24 months, with average weight recovery of 93.4% of the ideal. In eating disorder not otherwise specified with menstrual disorder (n=10), the mean initial body mass index was at 85thpercentile; minimal weight was in average 97.7% of the ideal value (minimum body mass index was in 52nd percentile) at 14.9 months of disease; body mass index stabilization occured at 1.6 year of disease; and mean body mass index was in 73rd percentile. Considering eating disorder not otherwise specified with secondary amenorrhea (n=4); secondary amenorrhea occurred at 4 months, with resolution at 12 months of disease (mean 65th percentile body mass index).Conclusion One-third of the eating disorder group had menstrual disorder − two-thirds presented with amenorrhea. This study indicated that for the resolution of their menstrual disturbance the body mass index percentiles to be achieved by female adolescents with eating disorders was 25-50 in anorexia nervosa, and 50-75, in eating disorder not otherwise specified.

The question of the influence of balneological treatment on menstrual function and the admissibility of using mud baths during the menstrual period has long attracted the attention of Russian doctors. So, back in 1826, Dr. Konrad noted good results in the treatment of menstrual disorders in the Caucasus. And even earlier, as can be seen from the announcement about Lipetsk, published under Peter I, menstruation disorder was considered an indication for spa treatment. Puparev (1847) and Brykov (1848) point to the beneficial effect of balneological treatment for menstrual disorders. In the journal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for 1853, in an article about the Odessa estuaries, in the number of indications, menstruation disorder was indicated.

BACKGROUNDThyroid disorders are among the commonest endocrine disorders worldwide. Thyroid dysfunction can interfere in multiple metabolic and physiological processes including menstrual cycle. This study was conducted to find pattern of thyroid dysfunction among women with menstrual disorders.METHODSTwo hundred thirty three females with menstrual disorders were screened for thyroid dysfunction. Thyroid function was assessed by measuring serum free triiodothyronine (T3), free thyroxine (T4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels.RESULTSThe mean age of study patients was 25.7±6.8 years. The most common menstrual disorder observed was irregular cycle (72.5%, n=169) followed by amenorrhea (21.9%, n=51) and menorrhagia (5.6%, n=13). Most of the patients were in the age group 15-24 years (51.1%, n=119), followed by 25-34 years (36.1%, n=84) and 35-45 years (12.9%, n=30). Mean level of free T3 and T4 was 2.91±1.05 pg/ml, 1.42±0.57 ng/dl respectively. Median TSH was 2.0 mIU/L (IQR, 1.0-4.0). Thyroid dysfunction was seen in 25.8% (n=60) women. Most common thyroid dysfunction was subclinical hypothyroidism (14.2%, n=33) followed by subclinical hyperthyroidism (6.9%, n=16), overt hyperthyroidism (3%, n=7) and overt hypothyroidism (1.7%, n=4).CONCLUSIONSThe study finds thyroid dysfunction especially subclinical hypothyroidism to be common among women with menstrual disorders. Thus, it may be beneficial to screen menstrual disorder patients for thyroid function especially to rule out thyroid disorder as potential etiological agent for menstrual disturbance.

Full textAbstract:
Dysfunction in menstrual physiology has pronounced effects on quality of life, involving mood changes, body image, infertility, and pregnancy complications. Light exposure may affect menstrual cycles and symptoms through the influence of melatonin secretion. The purpose of this systematic review is to determine the current state of knowledge about the effects of light and melatonin secretion on menstrual phase and cycle alterations. A brief overview of the influence of melatonin on human physiology is included. There is evidence of a relationship between light exposure and melatonin secretion and irregular menstrual cycles, menstrual cycle symptoms, and disordered ovarian function. In women with a psychopathology such as bipolar disorder or an endocrinopathy such as polycystic ovary syndrome, there seems to be greater vulnerability to the influence of light—dark exposure. Research on the complex role of light—dark exposure in menstrual physiology has implications for treatment of menstrual-associated disorders.

Background: Thyroid disorders specifically the hypothyroidism has been associated with menstrual disturbances in women of reproductive age group. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and its correlation with menstrual disorders in women of reproductive age group.Methods: A hospital based prospective analytical study was carried out in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Nalanda Medical College and Hospital, Patna from March 2017 to March 2018. 56 women of reproductive age group between 18 to 45 years presenting with menstrual disorders (like menorrhagia, oligo/hypomenorrhea, polymenorrhea, metrorrhagia, and amenorrhea) were recruited in this study. Thyroid function test was done in all patients. Statistical analysis done.Results: Maximum number of patients were seen in the age group of 31-40 years. Most common menstrual complain was menorrhagia (46.42%) followed by hypo/oligomenorrhoea (17.86%). In patients with menstrual disorders, 41.07 % had thyroid disorders in which subclinical hypothyroidism was prevalent in 17.86%, overt hypothyroidism in 12.5%, and overt hyperthyroidism in 5.35% of the women. Menorrhagia was the commonest menstrual disorder (52.94%) seen in hypothyroid patients followed by polymenorrhoea. A high degree positive correlation was observed between thyroid dysfunction and menstrual disorder (Pearson correlation coefficient, r=0.93).Conclusions: Our study concluded that thyroid dysfunction should be considered as an important etiological factor for menstrual irregularity. Thus, thyroid function tests should be performed in all patients with menstrual irregularities to avoid unnecessary interventions like curettage and hysterectomy.

Background: Menstrual disorders in female students in the early years after menarche affect their physical, emotional and social functions. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of menstrual disorders among female high school students and its relationship with their Quality of Life. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1000 high school girls in Qazvin, Iran during 2017-2018. Their menstrual disorders and quality of life were evaluated by a demographic checklist and KIDSCREEN questionnaire, respectively. Data were analyzed using independent t-test. Findings: The mean age of high school girls was 15.9±0.93 years. The most common disorder was Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) with a prevalence of 60%. Their quality of life had a significant relationship with PMS, menorrhagia, metorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, spotting, hypermenorrhea (P<0.001), polymenorrhea (P=0.005), hypomnorrhea (P=0.002) and amenorrhea (P=0.025). The quality of life of girls with these disorders were poorer compared to the girls with no menstrual disorder. Conclusion: Menstrual disorders are highly prevalent among female students, and have a considerable impact on their quality of life. Since this impact has the potential to have longer-term consequences, more efforts are needed to address and treat menstrual disorders in female students.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined the prevalence of and relationship between the disorders of the female athlete triad in collegiate athletes participating in aesthetic, endurance, or team/anaerobic sports. Participants were 425 female collegiate athletes from 7 universities across the United States. Disordered eating, menstrual dysfunction, and musculoskeletal injuries were assessed by a health/medical, dieting and menstrual history questionnaire, the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), and the Eating Disorder Inventory Body Dissatisfaction Subscale (EDI-BD). The percentage of athletes reporting a clinical diagnosis of anorexia and bulimia nervosa was 3.3% and 2.3%, respectively; mean (±SD) EAT and EDI-BD scores were 10.6 ± 9.6 and 9.8 ± 7.6, respectively. The percentage of athletes with scores indicating “at-risk” behavior for an eating disorder were 15.2% using the EAT-26 and 32.4% using the EDI-BD. A similar percentage of athletes in aesthetic, endurance, and team/anaerobic sports reported a clinical diagnosis of anorexia or bulimia. However, athletes in aesthetic sports scored higher on the EAT-26 (13.5 ± 10.9) than athletes in endurance (10.0 ± 9.3) or team/anaerobic sports (9.9 ± 9.0, p < .02); and more athletes in aesthetic versus endurance or team/anaerobic sports scored above the EAT-26 cut-off score of 20 (p < .01). Menstrual irregularity was reported by 31% of the athletes not using oral contraceptives, and there were no group differences in the prevalence of self-reported menstrual irregularity. Muscle and bone injuries sustained during the collegiate career were reported by 65.9% and 34.3% of athletes, respectively, and more athletes in aesthetic versus endurance and team/anaerobic sports reported muscle (p = .005) and/or bone injuries (p < .001). Athletes “at risk” for eating disorders more frequently reported menstrual irregularity (p = .004) and sustained more bone injuries (p = .003) during their collegiate career. These data indicate that while the prevalence of clinical eating disorders is low in female collegiate athletes, many are “at risk” for an eating disorder, which places them at increased risk for menstrual irregularity and bone injuries.

Background: Menstrual irregularities are common with thyroid disorders. It has been reported that hyperthyroidism the most common manifestation is simple oligomenorrhea and hypothyroidism usually is associated with polymenorrhea. Present study has been designed to evaluate the menstrual and endometrial patterns in women with thyroid disorders in costal Andhra Pradesh.Methods: During the study period of two years and ten months we have enrolled 110 patients with clinical presentation of thyroid disorder with menstrual irregularities as per our study criteria. Based on report patients were divided in to three groups, hyperthyroid, hypothyroid and subclinical hypothyroidism. Based on abnormal menstrual pattern patients were divided in to menorrhagia, oligomenorrhea, polymenorrhea, and amenorrhea groups. Endometrial biopsy was taken from women in perimenopausal age group and histopathological examination was done to know the pattern of endometrium.Results: Subclinical hypothyroidism was present in 24 (21.81%) patients, hypothyroidism was present in 52 (47.27%) patients and hyperthyroidism was present in 34 (30.90%) patients. amenorrhea was present in 26 (23.63%) patients, oligomenorrhea was present in 12 (10.90%) patients, Intermenstrual bleeding was present in 2 (1.81%) patients, Menorrhagia was present in 44 (40%) patients which was most common type of menstrual disorder and Polymenorrhagia was present in 26 (23.63%) patients.Conclusions: Hypothyroidism is most common thyroid disorder followed by hyperthyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism is least common. We have found that menstrual irregularities are more common in hypothyroid patients than hyperthyroid. Menorrhagia and Polymenorrhagia is more common than amenorrhoea and oligomenorrhea in hypothyroid patients.

The purpose of the study was to determine prevalence rates of the female athlete triad (Triad), differences by sport category (aesthetic, endurance, and team/anaerobic), and the relationship between each of the components of the Triad. Female athletes (N= 451) from three Division I universities with an average age of 20 years completed the Menstrual History Questionnaire, Injury Assessment Questionnaire, and the Questionnaire for Eating Disorder Diagnoses (Q-EDD; Mintz, O’Halloran, Mulholland, & Schneider, 1997). Almost 7% of female athletes reported clinical eating disorders, and 19.2% reported subclinical disordered eating. Disordered eating was prevalent in all three sport categories with no significant differences between groups. Muscle injuries were more prevalent in team/anaerobic sports (77.4%) than the aesthetic (68.1%) and endurance groups (58.1%). Furthermore, those athletes with menstrual dysfunction more frequently reported clinical eating disorders (1.4%) and sustained more skeletal injuries (51%) during their athletic career than athletes with regular menstrual function. Clinical implications and further research directions are addressed.

One hundred thirty-four participants completed a revised Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MDQ), which included criteria for premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Two weeks later the participants again completed the revised MDQ after reading either the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) diagnostic criteria for the PMDD or a copy of the same criteria retitled “Episodic Dysphoric Disorder,” with all menstrual cycle references removed. Knowledge of the diagnosis did not affect women's perceptions of their own menstrual cycle-related symptoms, but it increased participants' perceptions of premenstrual changes as a problem for women in general. Chi-square analyses revealed that participants were more willing to attach a psychiatric diagnosis to women they know if they believed the diagnosis was related to the menstrual cycle.

Present study to evaluate and detect thyroid dysfunction and its correlation in patients with a menstrual disorder in the reproductive age group. Research objectives are to study the prevalence of thyroid disorders in relation to menstrual disorders and study the correlation between menstrual irregularities and thyroid dysfunction. Precise assessments of thyroid hormones in serum become achievable easily and accurately with the introduction of new hormographical research techniques. Hypothyroidism diagnosis is advantageous because it typically relieves the patient of all symptoms. Therefore, the assessment of thyroid activity forms an essential component for the evaluation of a female with menorrhagia or otherwise menstrual irregularities. The individuals are rescued from repeated curettage from hysterectomy by early diagnosis of hypothyroidism Objectively measured menstrual blood losses were 35 ml per menstrual cycle (patients in the age group exposures.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Abstract 1133 Introduction: Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. VWD and other autosomal inherited bleeding disorders equally affect women and men. Menorrhagia or severe menstrual bleeding (HMB) is the most common symptom of women with bleeding disorders. HMB is defined as bleeding that lasts for more than seven days or as the loss of more than 80 mL of blood per menstrual cycle. The menstrual blood loss can be quantified by the use of a pictorial bleeding assessement chart (PBAC). Samples and methods: In 195 women with menorrhagia and in 45 controls menstrual blood loss was quantified using pictorial blood assesment charts (PBAC) and results were compared. Results: In 169 of 195 women (86%) a bleeding disorder could be detected. In those with a bleeding disorder, the distribution was as followed: 62% had a von Willebrand disease, 14,4% had a factor-VII-deficiency (F7D), 5% had a factor-XIII-deficiency (F13D) and the remaining 18,6% had other beedling disorders (e. g. hypofibrinogenaemia and other mild factor deficiencies). The median PBAC-Score of all patients was 268 (range: 10–4212). In our controi group of 45 women the median PBAC-Score was 46,5 (3- 137).ROC-Analysation shows that the PBAC (AUC=0.977) is much more useful than the number of bleeding days (AUC=0.855) in order to distingish controls from patients suffering from menorrhagia due to a coagulation disorder. We found that the best cutoff for the PBAC is 100 with an sensitifity of 88% and a specifity of 97%. Discussion: Attempts to measure the quantity of menstrual blood loss can be useful in clinic practice. One study found that variables predicting a blood loss higher than 80ml per menses were clots greater than one inch, low ferritin levels, or changing a pad or tampon more than hourly (flooding). A prospective method of quantifying menstrual blood loss includes the use of a pictorial bleeding assessement calendar (PBAC). We are of the opinion, that we would have detected more bleeding disorder also in the patients, where we did not find any diagnosis until now, if we would have controlled them more than one time during the cycle period. Conclusions: Women with hyermenorrhagia frequently suffer from a bleeding disorder, in 86% of our patients an abnormal coagulation was found. The PBAC-Score is an easy tool to quantify menstrual blood loss in women. In our study a PBAC-Score above 100 was suspicious of having a bleeding disorder. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of self-reported restrictive eating, current or past eating disorder, and menstrual dysfunction and their relationships with injuries. Furthermore, we aimed to compare these prevalences and associations between younger (aged 15–24) and older (aged 25–45) athletes, between elite and non-elite athletes, and between athletes competing in lean and non-lean sports. Data were collected using a web-based questionnaire. Participants were 846 female athletes representing 67 different sports. Results showed that 25%, 18%, and 32% of the athletes reported restrictive eating, eating disorders, and menstrual dysfunction, respectively. Higher rates of lean sport athletes compared with non-lean sport athletes reported these symptoms, while no differences were found between elite and non-elite athletes. Younger athletes reported higher rates of menstrual dysfunction and lower lifetime prevalence of eating disorders. Both restrictive eating (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.02–1.94) and eating disorders (OR 1.89, 95% CI 1.31–2.73) were associated with injuries, while menstrual dysfunction was associated with more missed participation days compared with a regular menstrual cycle (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.05–3.07). Our findings indicate that eating disorder symptoms and menstrual dysfunction are common problems in athletes that should be managed properly as they are linked to injuries and missed training/competition days.

Menstrual migraine (MM) is a menstrually related disorder (MRD) characterized by several symptoms in common with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). It has been hypothesized that in both MM and PMS hormonal cyclicity could change the balance of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators like monoamine and opioid. In this article we analyze all the data collected by our group on the central opioid tonus and the adrenergic and serotonergic systems in patients affected by menstrual migraine.

Objetivo: Elucidar as principais hipóteses atuais sobre o transtorno disfórico pré-menstrual (TDPM), a síndrome pré-menstrual (SPM) e a terapia cognitiva comportamental (TCC) como tratamento. Método: Foi realizada uma pesquisa nos bancos de dados PubMed, Cochrane e BIREME (LILACS/BVS), nos idiomas português, espanhol e inglês, no período de 2000 a 2017, utilizando os seguintes descritores: transtorno disfórico pré-menstrual, síndrome prémenstrual e terapia cognitiva comportamental. Resultados: Um total de 107 estudos enquadrou-se nos critérios de inclusão – artigos de revisão da literatura, estudos do tipo corte transversal, estudos do tipo coorte prospectivo e estudo do tipo coorte retrospectivo. Cento e cinco estudos identificaram fatores fundamentais para o desenvolvimento da TDPM – as hipóteses da função ovariana, função hormonal, neurotransmissores, genética e fatores ambientais e vulnerabilidade. Desde 2009, temos estudos sobre a TCC como tratamento de primeira linha. Conclusão: Os fundamentos do TDPM podem ser vistos como uma complexa multiplicidade de fatores. Ainda não há nada conclusivo; futuras pesquisas são necessárias para definir os processos etiopatogênicos do TDPM. A TCC demonstrou sua eficácia como tratamento de primeira linha para SPM e TDPM.

The average menstrual cycle obtained in the average menstrual cycle survey results was 29.51 days. Some experienced menstrual cycles of more than 35 days (oligomenore) of 10.29% and menstrual cycles of less than 21 days (polimenore) of 1.5%. There are 26.47% with a duration of menstruation more than 8 days. Furthermore, in the turn of the pads with a mean of 2.99 times per day, replace the pads. But there are some excessive dressing changes (> 3 times), while guessing that you experience excessive menstruation with a percentage of 23.5%. There were 63% of women having menstrual disorders with the highest type of disorder 91.7% of other disorders related to menstruation, followed by menstrual disorders 25%, and menstrual cycle disorders 5%. With the average duration of menstruation obtained at 7.16 days which still includes the normal range of 2 to 8 days. Then research was conducted to find out the dominant factors associated with menstrual cycle pattern disorders.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a distressing disorder amongst women of reproductive age group with significant implication in the productivity and quality of life of women who suffer from it. It is generally neglected as it is mostly undifferentiated from premenstrual symptoms—milder presentation of the same spectrum of problem but of lesser intensity and impairment. Objective: Here, in this article, we aim to highlight various studies and the research done on PMDD in the context of Indian women. Method: Reviewing the last 40 years’ database including Medline (PUBMED), Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Trip, Psych INFO, CINAHL, the Allied and Complementary Medicine Database (AMED), and the British Nursing Index. Results: PMDD is a troublesome disorder, often underdiagnosed. A thorough history including menstrual and sexual history, conducting a thorough physical examination, assessing the comorbidities, and finally using a proper and structured treatment protocol for managing the condition are recommended. Sertraline is the most widely studied drug which is found to be effective in PMDD.

Introduction: Nowadays, the most common problem in teenage girls is them facing menstrual disorders that develop secondary osteoporosis in their adolescent period. The locomotor system disorder is noticed more often in girls with adolescence hormone pathology, than in the population. This has an enormous human and socio-economic impact. Osteoporosis is estimated to affect 200 million women worldwide. Objective: The aim of this research is to determine the development of secondary osteoporosis in girls during their adolescent period. Materials and Methods: An analysis of 173 girls aged from 13 to 17 were under our supervision in the children’s clinic sanatorium “Zdravnisa”. Girls were divided into four groups according to their menstrual disorders. Results: As per the correlation analysis data, the influence of steroid hormones level on bone content has a cumulative effect on girls. Conclusion: For patients with oligomenorrhea, secondary amenorrhea, and polymenorrhea, there were disordered correlations of gonadotropic hormones. Correlations between calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium are disordered, which can be proof of mineralization processes disorder. As per the correlation analysis data for the girls with adolescence pathology, there were revealed direct average correlation connections between the concentration of steroid hormones and structural-functional properties of bony tissue. Low concentration of progesterone in the blood of girls with adolescence pathology is one of the main reasons for bone content deficit, development of osteoporosis, and scoliosis progression.

Objective: Menstrual disorders are highly prevalent among women. The need for counseling for different menstrual disorders is not well-documented.Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of menstrual problems amongst Beni-Suef University students during the previous 6 months and detect what menstrual disorders required counseling more often. Methods: A total of 1,519 students representing 28 different faculties of Beni-Suef University were included. To assess their menstrual disorders during the previous 6 months, a self-administered questionnaire was distributed to the university student. The questionnaire included questions about the most common complaints before and during menstruation. Other demographic and gynecological characters and the need for counseling were also investigated.Results: The mean age of the participating university students was 20.9 ± 1.7 years. The mean age of their first menarche was 12.9 ± 1.4 years while their average menstrual flow days was 5.1 ± 1.4. Throughout the previous 6 months, 22.1% of the investigated university students reported counseling due to at least 1 menstrual disorder. Before the menstruation, irritation (48.8%) and fatigue (40.9%) were the most reported symptoms and associated with high rates of counseling while dysmenorrhea (94.1%) and acne flare (49.2%) were very common during menses. Students with menstrual cycles exceeding 28 days and those who experienced breast tenderness, abdominal bloating, and insomnia were statistically more likely to resort to counseling (p < .05).Conclusions: Menstrual disorders, especially dysmenorrhea, are very common among students in Beni-Suef University, however, the necessity of counseling varied widely according to the complaint.Recommendations: Further studies should focus on the barriers to counseling for menstrual disorders.

Purpose. Dietary habit and body composition can develop risk of menstrual disorders. The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between macronutrient intake, anthropometric indices, and menstrual disorders. Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 217 women with an average age of 28.8 ± 7.9 years. Anthropometric indices including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and skinfold thickness from all participants were measured. Menstrual cycle characteristics were self-reported. The dietary habits were assessed by using a modified, semiquantitative 147 items Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) by two trained dietitians. Chi-square and independent T-test were used to assess bivariate associations and logistic regression was implemented in SPSS 21. Results. Most of the participants (52.5%) suffered from at least one of the menstrual disorders including painful menstruation (41%), premenstrual syndrome (PMS) (24.9%), and irregular menstruation (22.1%). The mean of waist circumference in women with no complication was 76.0 ± 11.8 and in women with at least one disorder was 86.7 ± 14.0 ( P < 0.001 ). Our results suggest that women with no disorder consumed less calorie, carbohydrate, protein, and fat in comparison to women with at least one disorder ( P < 0.001 ). Furthermore, the proportion of all kinds of disorders among women, who had overweight or obesity, was significantly higher than women with normal BMI ( P < 0.001 ). Conclusion. Irregular menstruation, painful menstruation, and PMS were significantly associated with high intake of calories, proteins, carbohydrates, and total fat. Furthermore, menstruation-related complications were worsened by obesity.

Full textAbstract:
This prospective study evaluated the 3-year change in menstrual function and bone mass among 40 female adolescent endurance runners (age 15.9 ± 1.0 years) according to baseline disordered eating status. Three years after initial data collection, runners underwent follow-up measures including the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire and a survey evaluating menstrual function, running training, injury history, and prior sports participation. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure bone mineral density and body composition. Runners with a weight concern, shape concern, or global score ≥4.0 or reporting >1 pathologic behavior in the past 28 days were classified with disordered eating. Compared with runners with normal Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire scores at baseline, runners with disordered eating at baseline reported fewer menstrual cycles/year (6.4 ± 4.5 vs. 10.5 ± 2.8, p = .005), more years of amenorrhea (1.6 ± 1.4 vs. 0.3 ± 0.5, p = .03), and a higher proportion of menstrual irregularity (75.0% vs. 31.3%, p = .02) and failed to increase lumbar spine or total hip bone mineral density at the 3-year follow-up. In a multivariate model including body mass index and menstrual cycles in the past year at baseline, baseline shape concern score (B = −0.57, p value = .001) was inversely related to the annual number of menstrual cycles between assessments. Weight concern score (B = −0.40, p value = .005) was inversely associated with lumbar spine bone mineral density Z-score change between assessments according to a multivariate model adjusting for age and body mass index. These finding support associations between disordered eating at baseline and future menstrual irregularities or reduced accrual of lumbar spine bone mass in female adolescent endurance runners.

Menstrual disorders such as delayed menstruation, irregular cycle, menstrual pain, or hypermenorea can bring so much discomfort to women caused by biological abnormalities and psychological factors. However, nutritional status can also play a role in contributing to this disorder. This study aimed to determine the relationship of nutritional status to menstrual disorders in midwifery students. This descriptive analytical study used a cross sectional study design and a correlation study to find the relationship between the independent variables and dependent variables. The samples were all the first grade students of Midwifery Department of Poltekkes Jakarta Kemenkes III by 150 people. Based on the bivariate test, there was a relationship between nutritional status and polimenorea/oligomenorea (0.000), hipermenorea/hipomenorea (0.006) and amhea (0.001). The lecturers of the midwifery program are expected to put more concern on this problem by providing counseling about this issue so that the students can get prepared to face the disorder by having nutritional food in their daily life.

SummaryIn women, von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. Since VWD and other inherited bleeding disorders are autosomal disorders, they affect women and men. Menorrhagia, or heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), is the most common symptom of women with bleeding disorder experience. Objectively, it is defined as bleeding that lasts for more than seven days or results in the loss of more than 80 ml of blood per menstrual cycle. The prevalence of menorrhagia in a woman with a bleeding disorder ranges from 32 to 100% in patients with VWD, from 5 to 98% in patients with a platelet dysfunction and from 35 to 70% in women with a rare factor deficiency. A detailed history and a careful physical exam are the first steps towards a diagnosis in adolescents, adding a PBAC > 100 increased the sensitivity of the screening tool further to 95%. Laboratory testing should be made at the time of menstrual bleeding in an effort to capture the lowest level of VWF : Ag and FVIII : C. Treatment options for menorrhagia in VWD: antifibrinolytic therapy with tranexamic acid, (2) the non-transfusional agent desmopressin (DDAVP), (3) purified blood products that contain factor VIII and VWF concentrated from plasma and (4) hormonal preparations.

The aim of this research was to compare menstrual cycles, menstrual disorders, and the prevalence of premenstrual syndrome (PMS)and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) in professional female gymnasts and their peers who donot practice any sport, and to identify factors causing a predisposition to premenstrual tension syndrome and premenstrual dysphoric disorders in both groups. The prospective study involved apopulation of 85 girls. The study group consisted of 45 professional female gymnasts (15–17 years of age) who lived inthe territory of Silesia, in the southern area of Poland. The control group consisted of 40 girls of the same age who lived in the same area but did not professionally practice any sport. The research tools included a questionnaire, a daily diary of PMS symptoms, a daily diary of PMDD symptoms, and a premenstrual symptom screening tool (PSST). The study showed that intensive physical activity undertaken by girls before their first menstruation is a menarche-delaying factor andthat competitive sport promotes premenstrual syndrome and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The risk factors for PMS and PMDD were also identified, andincluded alcohol and coffee consumption.

One of the factors causing menstrual cycle disorders was obesity. The incidence of obesity in children has increased significantly in the last three decades. Obesity in women was associated with menstrual disorders and decreased fertility in adolescence and reproductive years. Irregular menstrual cycles indicated a metabolic disorder characterized by glucose levels exceeding normal. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between glucose levels and the menstrual cycle in obese adolescents. This study was an analytical study with a chi-square approach, conducted on 52 obese adolescents with a BMI> 30 in 12th grade of SMAN 6, aged 17-18 years, who were healthy and have no history of disease and drug consumption. Sampling of fasting glucose levels used a digital tool called Easy Touch, measuring the menstrual cycle using a questionnaire, regular menstruation when the interval is 22-35 days, irregular <22 and> 35 days. Statistical test with the Fisher Test. Obese adolescents obtained normal glucose levels of 88.5%, menstrual cycles were generally not normal (61.5%) and found a significant relationship between glucose levels and the menstrual cycle with a value of p <0.026. Obesity was associated with glucose levels and menstrual cycle irregularities. It was necessary to monitor glucose levels and menstrual cycles as early as possible regarding future adolescent reproduction.

Objective. To explore the curative effect of Wenshentiaojing Decoction on the treatment of menstrual disorder caused by PCOS. Methods. Patients with menstrual disorders caused by PCOS admitted to our department from January 2020 to January 2021 were selected as the research objects and were divided into a control group and observation group according to the random number table method. The control group was treated with Western medicine, and the observation group was treated with Wenshentiaojing Decoction on the basis of Western medicine. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared. Before and after treatment, sex hormones (LH, FSH, LH/FSH, and testosterone (T)), ovarian volume, endometrial thickness, cervical mucus score, follicular number, menstrual conditions (menstrual duration, menstrual cycle, and menstrual volume), and other indicators in both groups were recorded. Results. After treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group (91.1% (41/45)) was higher than that of the control group (77.8% (35/45)), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). After treatment, the LH, LH/FSH, and T levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, while the FSH level was higher than that in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). After treatment, the ovarian volume, endometrial thickness, cervical mucus score, and follicle number in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). After treatment, the menstrual duration and menstrual volume in the observation group were longer than those in the conventional group, and the menstrual cycle was shorter than that in the conventional group ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion.

Background: An athlete’s menstrual cycle may be seriously disturbed when she undertakes a physical activity that exceeds the body’s adaptive capacity and/or applies dietary restrictions. The main aim of this study was to assess the impact of swimming training undertaken by participants of sport clubs on disorders of the menstrual cycle. Methods: The study involved 64 female athletes. The questionnaire utilized in this study was composed by the authors, however some of the questions were based on Low Energy Availability in Females Questionnaire (LEAF-Q). Results: 31.26% of swimmers reported that the menstrual cycle was stopped for more than 3 months, of which 21.88% had a menstrual absence for more than 6 months and 9.38% between 3 months and 6 months. Years of training were a positive predictor of the ‘more profuse bleeding’. There was a negative correlation between the disorders of the menstrual cycle, the body weight of the female participants (p < 0.05) and the body mass index (p < 0.01). It was found that with the severity of the degree of disorder in the menstrual cycle, the number of injuries among the surveyed swimmers increased (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The correct body weight of the participants was a positive predictor of the absence of the menstrual cycle disorders among the majority of women practicing swimming. Disorders in the menstrual cycle occurring in a certain percentage of the swimmers positively correlated with the number of injuries recorded among these swimmers. Swimming has been shown to alleviate some of the premenstrual symptoms.

Background: Menstrual abnormalities are a major gynaecological problem faced by adolescent girls leading to morbidity that may have an adverse effect on their school attendance. The objective of the study was to determine prevalence of menstrual disorders in girls aged 10-19 years and to study their treatment-seeking behaviour.Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 592 girls in the age group of 10 to 19 years attending schools in Pune city during January 2016 to December 2016. Permission was sought from school authorities. Girls 10-17 years were included after obtaining parental consent. For 18 and 19 year olds, informed consent was taken from the girls themselves. Demographic information, height, weight and characteristics of menstrual period were noted.Results: Majority girls (36%) were in age group 12.1-14 years. Most prevalent menstrual disorder was painful menses reported by 70% of girls, followed by heavy menstrual bleeding (46%) and cycle irregularity (22%). All menstrual disorders were most commonly prevalent in the age group of 14.1 to 16 years. Proportion of girls visiting a doctor and taking medications for painful menses was 26.7% and 16.5% respectively, for heavy menstrual bleeding was 25.7% and 16.5% respectively and for cycle irregularity was 33% and 16.5% respectively. No association was found between mother’s education and treatment seeking behaviour for menstrual disorders.Conclusions: In spite of high prevalence of menstrual disorders, only a minority of the adolescents seek expert advice. This underscores the need for creating awareness among girls, mothers and teachers and developing a screening tool to identify girls who could benefit by further investigation and follow-up.

The purpose of this study was to examine individual and combined Female Athlete Triad components within collegiate cheerleaders, an at-risk group. Cheerleaders (n = 19; age: 20.3 ± 1.2 years) completed anthropometric measurements, health history questionnaires, resting metabolic rate, the eating disorder inventory-3 and symptom checklist, blood sample, and DXA scan. Participants completed dietary and exercise logs for 7 days and used heart rate monitors to track daily and exercise energy expenditure. Proportions were calculated for low energy availability (LEA) risk, disordered eating risk, and pathogenic behaviors. Chi-square analysis was used to determine the difference between cheerleaders who experience low EA with or without disordered eating risk. All cheerleaders demonstrated LEA for the days they participated in cheerleading practice, 52.6% demonstrated LEA with eating disorder risk and 47.4% demonstrated LEA without eating disorder risk, 52.6% self-reported menstrual dysfunction, 14% experienced menstrual dysfunction via hormonal assessment, and 0% demonstrated low bone mineral density. Overall, 47.7% presented with one Triad component, 52.6% demonstrated two Triad components using self-reported menstrual data, and 10.5% demonstrated two Triad components using hormonal assessments. All cheerleaders displayed LEA. These findings support the need for increased education on the individual components of the Triad and their potential consequences by qualified personal.

Aim. The purpose of this paper is to study reproductive function in women with menstrual disorders.
Material and Methods. We analyzed the data and results of medical and genetic counseling of 107 women with menstrual dysfunction who applied to the medical and genetic center of the State Institution "The Institute of Hereditary Pathology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine". When analyzing the obtained indicators, we compared them with similar parameters in the comparison group which consisted of 100 healthy women applying for family planning. In the course of the work the data of somatic, gynecological and reproductive anamnesis were studied. Statistical processing of the obtained results was performed using the application package "Statistica 7.0" and the standard package of Excel 2013 statistical analysis. Significance between different groups was investigated by Pearson's test c2. Differences were considered significant at a significance level of p <0.05.
Results and Discussion. Data and results of the medical and genetic counseling of 107 women with menstrual dysfunction (the main group) and 100 women without menstrual dysfunction (the control group) were analyzed. Data of somatic, gynecological and reproductive anamnesis were studied. Significant differences were found in the social status of women of two groups (р<0,05): in the main group, there were 60 working women (56.1%) and 44 (41.1%) housewives. In the control group, there were 32 working women (32.0%) and 68 (68.0%) housewives respectively. The study of the features of menstrual function showed significant differences in the formation and duration of the menstrual cycle in women of both groups (p<0.05). In women with menstrual dysfunction, there were disorders of reproductive history, most often due to miscarriages and stillbirths - 59 (55.1%) and infertility - 19 (17.7%). It was found that most patients in the main group had somatic diseases: 66 (61.7%) in the main group and 46 (46.0%) in the control group (р<0.05). Complications of gynecological anamnesis were significantly more often observed in women of the main group - 85 (79.4%) than in women of the control group - 41 (41.0%) (р<0.05).
Conclusions. Analysis of the social status of women in both groups showed that the vast majority of women in the main group were employees compared to women in the control group: 60 (56.1%) and 44 (32.0%) against 32 (32%) and 44 (44, 0%) respectively (p <0,05). Significant differences in menstrual function data in women of both groups were found. A considerable proportion of women in the main group - 52 (48.0%) noted the onset of menarche at the age of 15 years, and in most women of the control group - 91 (91.0%) it was observed at the age of 12-14 years, and only in 9 (9.0%) cases - at the age of 15 years (p <0.05). There were significant differences in the duration of the menstrual cycle on all indicators in women of both groups. In 48 (44.9%) women of the main group, the duration of the menstrual cycle was 35-45 days, and in 12 (11.2%) - 45-90 days. In all women of the control group, this figure was 28-35 days (p <0.05). Only in 66 (61.7%) patients of the main group, the cycle was established immediately, compared with 81 (81.0%) women in the control group (p <0.05). Women in the main group were significantly more likely to have complications of reproductive history - 63 (58.9%): most often miscarriages and stillbirths - 59 (55.1%) and infertility - 19 (17.7%) (p <0.05). 85 (79.4%) women of the main risk group had difficult gynecological history, compared to 41 (41.0%) in the control group and they were significantly more likely to suffer from infertility -19 (17.7%), p <0.05).

SynopsisIn 15 women with Late Luteal Phase Dysphoric Disorder (LLPDD) and in 15 normal control subjects, personality traits were assessed using the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI) during follicular and luteal menstrual-cycle phases. Compared with controls, LLPDD subjects had less compulsive but more passive/aggressive and borderline/cycloid traits, and more depression and hypomania. Menstrual-cycle phase did not significantly affect personality variables in either group. In particular, depression and hypomania in LLPDD subjects suggests a relationship with affective disorders.

Background: Menstrual disorders are a common clinical problem due to multiple causes. Hyperprolactinemia, is disorders of hypothalamic-pituitary axis in young women, is usually associated with amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, anovulation, and ovulatory cycles with short or inadequate luteal phase, and galactorrhoea. Menstrual disorder affects physical and mental health of every woman. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study was to know hyperprolactinemia among the patients of menstrual disorders in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods: Women with menstrual irregularities attending Gynae outpatient department and admitted initially checked clinically and their serum prolactin level were measured. Women in reproductive age group (15–45 years) with complain of abnormal uterine bleeding were included in the study. Menopausal women, women with organic diseases in uterus and cervix, and pregnant women were excluded from the study. Results: Prolactin level is statistically significant with age (P = 0.011). The patients from age group of 20 to 35 years had high proportion (14.4%) of hyperprolactinemia followed by age group <20 years. (12.9%) and >35 years (12.9%). The women presenting with menstrual disorders enlisted in the study were evaluated on the basis of their sociodemographic parameters. About (15.5%) were below 20 years. About (27%) were above 35 years and majority of the women (57.5%) enrolled in the study were from age group of 2035 years of age. Serum prolactin level was observed in 15.4% in patients with frequent menses, 9.1% in patients with metrorrhagia and 7.7% in patients with heavy menstrual bleeding. That result was statistically significant with P = 0.039. Conclusion: Serum prolactin level should be evaluated in every patient of menstrual disorders.

Introduction: Adolescence is a significant period between childhood and adulthood when physical and psychological changes occur along with menstruation. The onset of puberty is governed by genetic, endocrinal, neuronal, socioeconomic, and environmental factors. Endocrine abnormalities in adolescents are not uncommon and can lead to menstrual disorders. This study's objective is to identify the prevalence of underlying endocrine abnormalities and their association with menstrual disorders among adolescents at a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan. Material and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of adolescent girls presenting with menstrual disorders at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan, from January 1, 2020, to January 1, 2021. We collected a detailed history from each patient. All physical examinations were performed in the presence of a female nurse, and we carefully maintained patient privacy. The physical examinations consisted of recording the patient's height, weight, body mass index (BMI), and thyroid examination. We also noted the patient's hirsutism score and the presence or absence of secondary sexual characteristics. All the patients received a hormonal evaluation in which we measured their thyroid-stimulating hormone levels, and follicle-stimulating hormone (on day two of their menstrual cycle and random FSH was measured for amenorrhea patients), prolactin, and free androgen index. Results: The study included 143 adolescent girls aged 10 to 19 with menstrual disorders such as primary amenorrhea, secondary amenorrhea, frequent menstrual bleeding, infrequent menstrual bleeding, shortened menstrual bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and intermenstrual bleeding. The mean menarcheal age of the patient population was 12.1 ± 0.4 years, and the mean BMI was 25.27 ± 5.02 kg/m2. One hundred twenty-four patients (86.7%) reported polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Most PCOS patients had infrequent menstrual bleeding (85.5%), 46% had biochemical signs of hyperandrogenism, and 18.5% of PCOS patients showed clinical signs of hyperandrogenism. The most common menstrual problems reported by the patients were infrequent menstrual bleeding (74.1%), followed by shortened menstrual bleeding (61.5%), and heavy menstrual bleeding (9.8%). Thyroid dysfunction was present in the form of hypothyroidism (67.4%) and hyperthyroidism (32.6%). Over half of the hypothyroid patients (58.1%) presented with infrequent menstrual bleeding,41.9% presented with shortened menstrual bleeding and 41.9% with heavy menstrual bleeding .Infrequent menstrual bleeding (73.3%) and shortened menstrual bleeding (66.7%) were the most common menstrual problems in hyperthyroid patients. We found a significant association between thyroid disorder and infrequent menstrual bleeding (p=0.037), heavy menstrual bleeding (p<.001), and shortened menstrual bleeding (p=0.051). Heavy menstrual bleeding was also significantly related to hyperprolactinemia (p=0.036). Conclusions: Our study showed that endocrine abnormalities in thyroid dysfunction, PCOS, hyperprolactinemia, and hyperandrogenism could cause various menstrual problems in adolescent girls. Hence, underlying endocrine abnormalities need to be investigated and treated to improve adolescents' physical and mental well-being.

Full textAbstract:
Repetitive negative thinking (RNT) is a transdiagnostic feature of psychiatric disorders. Women report greater RNT than do men, yet the association between uniquely female characteristics, such as fluctuating sex hormones during the menstrual cycle, and RNT has not been established. Here we examined changes in RNT and anxiety symptoms across the menstrual cycle in women with ( n = 40) and without ( n = 41) generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Women with GAD reported an increase in RNT and negative affect from the follicular phase to the luteal phase; unexpectedly, this was not associated with changes in anxiety symptoms, estradiol, or progesterone. Nonanxious women reported no changes in RNT or anxiety symptoms over the menstrual cycle, but higher within-participants progesterone was associated with reduced RNT and negative affect. These results indicate that uniquely female biological processes may influence core cognitive processes that underlie anxiety disorders, but further investigations to determine the implications for symptom severity are required.

Background. Neuropsychological function and cognitive correlates of depression have not previously been examined in a rigorously defined population of patients suffering from premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD).Method. Mood, neuropsychological function and cognition were measured in 10 PMDD patients and 10 age-matched controls in both phases of the menstrual cycle in a random order, counter-balanced design.Results. The BDI was significantly elevated in the luteal phase of PMDD patients only while other cognitive measures showed no significant differences. Working memory was impaired in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle with no significant differences between PMDD and control subjects.Conclusion. Despite the small sample size, these results show that the BDI is sensitive to the mood fluctuations of PMDD patients. An impairment in working memory was also found although this is a general menstrual cycle effect.
