[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First

• Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
• If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
• It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[ irregular periods ] A missed period for two months straight: a distress signal from your uterus

• Just because you’ve missed your period for two months doesn’t necessarily mean you have a serious uterine condition.

• Ulsan You should seek consultation for abnormal bleeding when you’re unsure how to distinguish “bleeding that occurs outside your expected menstrual period.”
• While some cases—such as temporary spotting around the time of ovulation—may be relatively mild and pass quickly, there are also instances that require further evaluation, such as pregnancy-related bleeding, cervical or endometrial issues, fibroids or polyps, and hormonal imbalances.
• While abnormal bleeding is indeed a topic that generates a high volume of searches and interest, many people are often confused about how long they should wait to see if the bleeding is something they should be concerned about.

[ irregular periods ] If your period comes more frequently than every 21 days, find out the cause of your shortened cycle

• Ulsan When consulting about a shorter menstrual cycle, the first things we ask are, “How many days apart are your periods?” and “Has the cycle suddenly become shorter recently?”
• If your period comes more frequently than every 21 days, or if your cycle has shortened from 28–30 days to 23–24 days, it is important to determine whether this is simply a change in your physical condition, an ovulation issue, or a sign of a short luteal phase or diminished ovarian function.
• The menstrual cycle is a crucial rhythm in women’s health.
