Irregular Menstrual Cycle Treatment

In a normal menstrual cycle, the female body grows one follicle that matures to eventually release an egg. Around the time of this release of the egg, the body also prepares by secreting estrogen and progesterone to thicken the lining of the uterus. This lining, called the endometrium, is there in case the egg is fertilized.

How does that affect a woman’s fertility? If you are facing irregular periods, the chances are that your body is not ovulating, or in simpler terms, is not producing eggs as frequently as it should. Thankfully, a majority of the reasons that cause this ovulation disorder are treatable.
