For women, there is no running away from this time of the month. However, it is very unfortunate that basic biological processes are often hushed among other important issues in society. Discussion about menstruation is a taboo. Many girls don't even know about menstruation. When they first appear in this situation, they often hide it from their parents and friends, which lead to confusion and anxiety in their minds about the most natural phenomenon occurring in their bodies. For some women, the period can be very painful, accompanied by severe cramps, back pain, bloating and so on.

In medical terms, irregular period is known as oligomenorrhea, which is problem for women. Many factors lead to this problem such as eating disorders, weight loss or increase, anaemia, menopause, thyroid disease, hormonal imbalances, liver disease, tuberculosis, miscarriage and other health situations. Lifestyle incentives such as increased exercise, smoking, alcoholism, caffeine, travel, stress, certain medications and birth control pills can also cause this problem. Irregular periods are common during menopause.
