Complications
In some cases, women may experience disruptive levels of depression, cramping, or heavy bleeding in association with their menstrual cycles. Women who suspect that their menstrual cycles are abnormal should consult a doctor, as any abnormalities in this cycle may be indications of an underlying problem, such as a hormonal imbalance, a disorder of the reproductive tract, or lack of adequate nutrition. However, most disruptive symptoms associated with menstruation can be resolved with the help of a doctor or medical care practitioner and a healthy lifestyle.
