Menstrual cycle and its character reflects the state of women's health. Menstrual disorders may be triggered by a variety of diseases relating not only to the sexual sphere, but also in other internal organs and systems. The main purpose of women - is procreation, which is determined by regular ovulatory menstrual cycle. In addition, menstrual disorders are not only cause bleeding or infertility, but also can cause pre-cancerous and cancerous diseases of the genital organs. To avoid possible effects of menstrual cycle, it is necessary to timely treatment and regulation violations.

Causes of irregular menstrual cycle

The regulation of the menstrual cycle begins with the elimination of the causes of the breach. The reasons that lead to the disruption of the cycle are many and varied:

• internal disorders in the ovary (congenital or acquired);
• concomitant endocrine diseases (thyroid gland, adrenal gland, diabetes mellitus);
• stress, trauma, poor diet;
• chronic and acute general infectious diseases, including infections, sexually transmitted infections;
• inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs (endometritis, salpingoophoritis);
• genital diseases (ovarian tumors, uterine fibroids, endometriosis);
• violation of an intrauterine device location;
• Medical abortion, miscarriage;
• therapy with certain drugs.

The regulation of the menstrual cycle

• Chronic and acute general infectious diseases

As a result, the impact on the body of infectious agents often disrupted menstrual cycle. This can manifest itself in its shortening and uterine bleeding occurs, or, conversely, a long delay of menstruation. Timely and quality anti-inflammatory treatment can restore the menstrual cycle, without resorting to its hormonal correction.

• Stress, trauma, poor diet

Since the first level in the regulation of the menstrual cycle is the cortex, then all pulses coming from the external environment, affect the nature of the cycle. It may be chronic sleep deprivation, anxiety before exams, war or excessive exercise (athletes), resulting in menstrual flow with long delays, up to amenorrhea. Malnutrition and lack of vitamins also cause cycle disorders. For its regulation rather exceptions provoking factor and destination sedation and multivitamins.

• Inflammatory diseases of the sexual sphere

Infectious diseases of the uterus and appendages, characterized by not only the symptoms of inflammation, but also violate the hormonal function of ovaries and / or transformation of the endometrium in the uterus at different phases of the menstrual cycle. The consequence of inflammatory genital mutilation is a violation of the menstrual cycle, until the development of infertility. Treatment includes antibiotic therapy, hormonal regulation of the estrogen cycle Estrogen - the key to bone health -gestagennymi drugs followed by stimulation of ovulation Ovulation - How to determine as accurately as possible?   (Clomid).

• Violation location IUD

Improper positioning of an intrauterine device leads to inter-menstrual bleeding, prolonged and heavy menstruation until the bleeding. In order to restore the menstrual cycle spiral is removed. In some cases, symptomatic hemostasis (hemostatic drugs) and cyclic hormone therapy is prescribed for three months.

• Diseases of the genital organs

The tumors of the uterus, ovarian cysts Ovarian cysts - normal or dangerous? , Endometriosis often accompanied by disturbances of the menstrual cycle in the form of bleeding or spotting before and after menstruation. The regulation of the menstrual cycle is performed after the surgical removal of the tumor with a further purpose of the estrogen-progestin preparations.

• Endocrine diseases

Diseases of the thyroid gland, adrenal glands, diabetes mellitus Diabetes - threatening and incurable disease   and others also cause menstrual irregularities. To restore enough adequate correction of the underlying disease.

The active ingredient is a female sex utrogestan progesterone, which detects changes in the female body during the second half of the menstrual cycle. The disadvantage of this hormone leads to infertility. And if not enough progesterone during pregnancy, it can cause a miscarriage.

The phases of the menstrual cycle

The menstrual cycle has two phases, progesterone and estrogen, but some clinicians are displayed in a separate phase of ovulation and then there are three phases.

Menstrual cycle begins with the first day of the next menstrual period - from that moment begins to ripen another egg in the ovary .  It matures under the influence of pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) .  The egg matures in a special bubble - follicle cells which as they mature oocyte secrete more female hormones estrogen .  Under the influence of estrogen in a woman's body goes through many changes as in the uterus grows mucosa (endometrium) .  When the egg matures, the amount of estrogen is at its peak and this contributes to hormonal changes: the amount of FSH produced by the pituitary gland decreases, but begins to produce another hormone - luteinizing (LH), which under the influence of the follicle bursts and the egg is released from the ovary .  This process is called ovulation .  In the future, the egg enters the fallopian tube, where it may occur fertilization by sperm .

Ovulation occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle, day 14-16 in the 28-day cycle. After ovulation begins the second half of the menstrual cycle, when the "kingdom" progesterone Progesterone - norm and pathology . Progesterone is produced by the temporary endocrine gland corpus luteum, formed at the site of the ruptured follicle. The number at the beginning of progesterone increases, under his influence stops increase in the volume of the endometrium and it begins to produce a secret, which is necessary for the development of the fetus in case of pregnancy. But if pregnancy does not occur, the progesterone produced less, hormonal support is falling, and the mucous membrane of the uterus is torn away, which is accompanied by menstrual bleeding. On the same day begins the new oocyte maturation, ie beginning of a new menstrual cycle.

If any violations of the menstrual cycle is assigned utrozhestan

Utrozhestan assigned with diseases and conditions caused by deficiencies of progesterone in the second phase of the menstrual cycle. Such diseases include menstrual irregularities, infertility, and are accompanied by miscarriage. Miscarriage in deficiency of progesterone appears habitual abortion, as the progesterone in the normal course of pregnancy inhibits the contractile activity of uterine muscles and prevents potential miscarriages. In such cases, the capsule utrogestan enter deeply into the vagina twice a day at a daily dose of 200-400 mg, which is divided into two steps. Conduct such courses after ovulation. Calculate the day of ovulation in this case helps the doctor, he also will calculate the dose and duration of reception utrogestan.

Utrozhestan appointed and if the body produces too much estrogen - progesterone suppresses the production of estrogen. Such diseases breast Breast - the mirror Women's Health , Uterine fibroids, premenstrual syndrome and certain other conditions.

Infertility may be caused by hormonal deficiency, as in the second and in the first phase of the menstrual cycle, in such a case one speaks of total reduction of ovarian function. Ovarian failure may occur premature menopause. Substitution therapy is appointed in the absence of ovaries (for example, when removed), or if they are not functioning. In such cases designate as progesterone and estrogen.

Replacement therapy in women with non-functioning or ovariectomized performed during therapy with estrogen. Capsules progesterone thus inserted into the vagina in a specific pattern. When intravaginal administration utrozhestan Utrozhestan - corrects the deficiency of progesterone   in a large number it goes directly into the uterine wall, which is very important in the non-functioning ovaries.

Standard appointment utrogestan 16-17 for 25-26 days of the menstrual cycle The days of the menstrual cycle: Four phases   normalizes the menstrual cycle if it is broken.

In addition, utrozhestan prescribed in preparation for in vitro fertilization, when the vast own hormonal activity of women and creates an artificial controlled hormones.

Utrozhestan - a drug that can help women get rid of infertility, bear and give birth to a child.
