Menstrual Irregularity Treatment in Kharghar
Most cycles arrive every 21 to 35 days. When yours keeps shifting, comes twice a month, skips entirely, or turns heavy and painful, that is your body flagging something worth checking.
Understanding it
What counts as irregular, and why it happens
We frequently see women who have been quietly managing irregular periods for a long time. Some are unsure where to turn for help, others hope the problem will settle on its own. In reality, a shift in your menstrual cycle is your body telling you that something needs attention.
Every woman’s cycle is slightly different, but in most cases periods come every 21 to 35 days and the flow lasts three to seven days. When that pattern keeps changing, arriving too early or too late, too heavy or too light, or skipping altogether, it is called an irregular period.
There is no single reason behind menstrual changes. We usually see a mix of health and lifestyle factors: hormonal imbalance from thyroid problems, PCOS or age related change; long working hours, poor sleep and emotional stress; uterine problems such as fibroids, endometriosis or polyps; sudden weight gain or loss; and certain medicines or contraceptives.
A proper checkup identifies the exact reason. We start with a personal discussion about your cycle pattern, routine, food habits and stress levels, then a gentle examination, blood tests for hormone and thyroid levels, and an ultrasound to look for PCOS, fibroids or changes in the uterus. Further tests are suggested only when they are needed.

Frequently asked questions
The questions patients ask most often, answered plainly.
What is an irregular period?
If your cycle keeps changing every month, or is shorter than 21 days or longer than 35 days, it is considered irregular.
When should I consult a doctor?
If your periods have been irregular for three months, or you have heavy bleeding or pain, it is worth seeking advice.
Can stress delay periods?
Yes. Stress affects hormones and can delay your cycle.
Can irregular periods be treated?
Yes. In most cases they can be managed well with proper care and guidance.
Will irregular periods affect pregnancy?
Sometimes they can, but with the right treatment many women conceive without difficulty.
Do I need tests?
