Dysmenorrhea is a cramp-like pain in the lower abdomen that radiates to upper abdomen, waist and thighs and is sometimes accompanied by systemic symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache and dizziness. Dysmenorrhea could be caused due to adenomyosis, endometriosis, fibroids and ovarian tumours. Also Read - Early menstruation linked to hot flushes and night sweats later at menopause

3. Amenorrhea– The main indication of amenorrhoea is that you don’t have menstrual periods. Depending on the cause of amenorrhoea, you might experience other signs or symptoms along with the absence of periods, such as milky nipple discharge, hair loss, headache, vision changes, excess facial hair. Consult your doctor if you’ve missed at least three menstrual periods in a row, or if you’ve never had a menstrual period and you’re age 16 or older. Excess weight, stress, contraception, PCOS, hormonal problems are some of the causes.

4. PCOS- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine system disorder among women of reproductive age. Most women with PCOS have many small cysts on their ovaries. Hence, it is called polycystic ovarian syndrome. The cysts are not harmful but lead to hormone imbalances. One hormone change triggers another, which changes another forming a vicious cycle. The incidence of PCOS appears to be rising in India day by day. It is seen in as many as 5% to 10% of women in their reproductive age. It could be hereditary. Also, a family history of diabetes could put you at an increased risk of PCOS.
