The types of irregular periods causing Infertility
Menstrual irregularities lead to pain and inconvenience causing concerns for many women. These disorders might indicate an underlying condition of infertility or difficulty in getting pregnant. Our doctor can help in determining this.

Amenorrhea - Cause for Infertility ?
Amenorrhea means the absence of a menstrual period. This leads to a temporary or permanent lack of menstruation. Missing one period is not the cause of concern, and missing a period might be an indication of pregnancy. But when missing more than one period in the absence of pregnancy would be a sign of an underlying disorder that causes infertility.
Amenorrhea is caused due to genetic, structural, or hormonal conditions preventing menstruation from the beginning of puberty known as primary amenorrhea. The conditions that result in primary amenorrhea are Turner syndrome, gonadal dysgenesis, androgen insensitivity, congenital adrenal hyperplasia and PCOS.
It happens after a woman starts to have a condition known as Secondary Amenorrhea. This is often caused by conditions that affect the uterus or organs involved in hormone production of the hypothalamus, ovaries, and pituitary gland.
The causes for secondary amenorrhea are
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
- The premature ovarian failure
- The early menopause
- Excessive androgen
Oligomenorrhea
Oligomenorrhea happens when a woman undergoes infrequent periods for more than 35 days without any menstruation. The menstrual disorder happens due to a side effect of hormonal birth control. This is caused by diabetes, thyroid problems, eating disorders, excess physical activity in younger women, and increased prolactin in the blood caused by medications.
But oligomenorrhea sometimes indicates the presence of PCOS causing infertility. When oligomenorrhea left untreated would increase the woman’s risk of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer. It is best to seek medical evaluation when you go 35 days without a period.
