A Brief List of Menstrual Disorders

Oligoovulation

Ovulating infrequently or irregularly. Usually, a woman ovulates, or releases a mature egg once a month, about halfway through her cycle. Oligoovulation is seen in women with irregular cycles, or very long cycles (more then 50 days). This may make it difficult to track your fertile days if trying to conceive.

Anovulation

Absence of ovulation when it is normally expected. Anovulation is characterized by irregularity of menstrual periods; unpredictable variability of intervals, duration, or bleeding. It can also cause your period to stop or excessive bleeding.

Polymenorrhea

Menstrual cycles with intervals of 21 days or fewer.

Oligomenorrhea

Infrequent or light menstrual periods (intervals exceeding 35 days).

Dysmenorrhea

Cramps or painful menstruation. Dysmenorrhea involves menstrual periods that are accompanied by either sharp, intermittent pain or dull, aching pain, usually in the pelvis or lower abdomen.

Amenorrhea

Absence of a menstrual period in a woman of reproductive age. This occurs most often during pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding). Outside of the reproductive years amenorrhea may occur during childhood and after menopause.

Menorrhagia

Abnormally heavy and prolonged period. Causes may be due to abnormal blood clotting, disruption of normal hormonal regulation of periods or disorders of the endometrial lining of the uterus. Depending upon the cause, it may be associated with abnormally painful periods.

Anyone who is trying Nuva-ring be careful! I got it from my GYN and I've had breakthrough bleeding for the past 2 months straight.
