What Are Irregular Periods?
A normal cycle ranges from 21-35 days, average being 28 days. If there is any deviation from this normal range, it signifies irregular periods, also termed as oligomenorrhea. You have irregular periods if
- Periods are too frequent (less than 21 days apart)
- Periods are too far apart (more than 35 days)
- You miss periods for several months (amenorrhea)
- Your flow is unusually heavy or light
Symptoms of Irregular Periods
Recognising the symptoms early allows for the timely treatment of irregular periods. The common ones are:
- Missing periods for multiple cycles
- Cycles that vary drastically month-to-month
- Heavy bleeding or spotting between cycles
- Painful periods with excessive cramping
- Shortened or prolonged menstruation duration
Causes of Irregular Periods
There are several irregular periods causes, and they often differ based on age, lifestyle, and underlying health conditions.
- Hormonal imbalances including PCOS, thyroid disorders, or elevated prolactin levels.
- Lifestyle factors include sudden weight changes, poor nutrition, or lack of exercise.
- Medical Conditions like diabetes, endometriosis, or uterine fibroids.
- Birth control factors includestarting, stopping, or missing oral contraceptives.
- Perimenopause – Women nearing menopause may experience changes in their cycle.
Types of Irregular Periods
The kind of irregularity should be identified to select the right irregular periods solution.
- Oligomenorrhea – Infrequent Periods
This refers to menstrual cycles that occur less frequently than normal, typically with intervals longer than 35 days. It can be caused by PCOS, stress, extreme weight loss, or thyroid disorders. - Polymenorrhea – Frequent Periods
Polymenorrhea involves shorter menstrual cycles, usually less than 21 days apart. This may indicate hormonal imbalance, ovulation problems, or perimenopause. - Menorrhagia – Heavy Menstrual Bleeding
Menorrhagia is characterised by abnormally heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding. Common causes include fibroids, endometriosis, hormonal imbalances, or bleeding disorders. - Metrorrhagia – Bleeding Between Periods
This type involves spotting or bleeding between regular menstrual periods and may be linked to uterine fibroids, polyps, infections, or hormonal fluctuations. - Amenorrhea – Absence of Periods
Amenorrhea is the absence of menstrual periods—either primary (never started) or secondary (stopped for 3+ months). Causes can include PCOS, pregnancy, menopause, or medical conditions like pituitary disorders.

Treatment for Irregular Periods at Birla Fertility & IVF, Delhi
Once we determine the reason for irregular periods, we customise your treatment basis your age, fertility goals, and medical history. Options may include:
Lifestyle Modifications
For many women, small but consistent lifestyle changes can significantly improve menstrual irregularity. Adopting a nutrient-rich diet, incorporating regular physical activity and managing stress through techniques like yoga, meditation, and counselling can support your overall treatment process while maintaining long-term reproductive health, especially in cases linked to PCOS or obesity.
Hormonal Therapy
When irregular periods are caused by hormonal imbalances, we may recommend targeted hormonal treatments. These can include birth control pills to regulate cycles, progesterone therapy to address deficiencies, or thyroid medications if an underactive or overactive thyroid is the root cause. All treatments are closely monitored to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Fertility Treatment
If you are planning for pregnancy, irregular periods can make it difficult to predict ovulation. At Birla Fertility & IVF, we offer tailored fertility treatments to enhance your chances of conception. This includes ovulation induction using medication to trigger egg release, or assisted reproductive techniques like Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) and In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) if needed.
Surgery
When structural abnormalities like fibroids, polyps or uterine septum are causing trouble with your menstrual cycle, you may be advised to undergo a minimally invasive surgery. To rectify these problems, we use hysteroscopy or laparoscopy to restore your normal cycles and improve your reproductive health.
