Your menstrual cycle is more than just a monthly occurrence — it’s a window into your overall health. From your hormones to your metabolism and even your emotional well-being, your period can reveal a lot about what’s going on inside your body.
At Birth & Bliss Clinic, Dwarka, we help women understand their bodies better — because when you listen to your menstrual cycle, you can detect early signs of hormonal imbalances and prevent long-term health issues.
🌸 Why Menstrual Health Matters
A healthy menstrual cycle is a sign that your reproductive system and hormones are in balance. Irregular periods, heavy bleeding, or severe cramps may indicate underlying health conditions that shouldn’t be ignored.
Your menstrual cycle reflects the health of several body systems — including your thyroid, ovaries, uterus, and adrenal glands — and can often signal changes long before other symptoms appear.
🩸 What a Healthy Period Looks Like
A normal menstrual cycle typically lasts 21 to 35 days, with bleeding for 3 to 7 days. Mild discomfort, mood changes, or fatigue are common — but excessive pain or irregularity could suggest deeper issues.
Signs of a Healthy Period:
Regular cycle every month
Moderate bleeding (not too light or heavy)
Minimal pain or cramps
No large clots
Stable mood and energy levels
If your cycle doesn’t follow these patterns, it’s important to discuss it with a women’s health specialist.
💡 What Your Period Could Be Telling You
1. Irregular or Missed Periods
This may be linked to stress, thyroid imbalance, PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), or sudden weight changes. It’s a sign your hormones might be out of sync.
2. Heavy or Prolonged Bleeding
Excessive bleeding could indicate fibroids, endometriosis, or hormonal imbalance. It can also lead to anemia and fatigue if untreated.
3. Painful Cramps (Dysmenorrhea)
Mild cramps are normal, but severe or persistent pain may be caused by endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and requires medical evaluation.
4. Spotting Between Periods
Irregular spotting could be related to hormonal fluctuations, contraceptives, or uterine issues. It’s always good to get it checked.
5. Missed Periods for Several Months (Amenorrhea)
Missing your period for three or more cycles (and not being pregnant) could point to hormonal disorders, stress, or nutritional deficiencies.
🌿 Factors That Affect Menstrual Health
Stress: Disrupts hormonal balance and delays ovulation
Poor Diet: Lack of nutrients like iron and vitamin B12 can alter menstrual patterns
Sleep Issues: Affect hormone production and mood
Excess Exercise or Sedentary Lifestyle: Both extremes can disturb your cycle
Medical Conditions: PCOS, thyroid disorders, or insulin resistance can directly impact menstruation
