Read this article to know the
relationship between follicular ovarian cyst and
irregular period.
Although
irregular periods may be triggered by many issues,
follicular ovarian cysts and irregular periods
sometimes becomes related issues and this is chiefly
caused by hormonal changes in the body. However, it may
be prudent to understand what actually is meant by
irregular period or menstruation.
Irregular
menstrual cycle in women usually refers to any
alteration in regular menstrual periods or in other
words, menses. Apart from other functional features,
menses are some kind of a natural system of cleaning of
the uterus and the vagina of bacteria (not the friendly
type) and sperm that are likely to get deposited there
from time to time. Since the menstrual cycle in a woman
is usually counted from the start of one menses to the
beginning of the next, ranging mostly from 21 to 35
days, the onset of menses for every 35 days may not be
construed as irregular periods. Nevertheless, irregular
menstrual cycle, when it occurs can be of short term
duration or may lead to long-term irregularity. While
the cause of short-term duration menstruation may arise
from malnutrition, stress, tension, etc, long-term
duration menstrual irregularities occur due to caffeine,
a chemical that disrupts corpus luteum (a type of
follicular cyst) function. In any case, these
irregularities indicate the beginning of a disorder in
the natural sequence of hormonal procedures that control
the menstrual cycle.
Ovarian
follicles undergo varying stages of changes and this
happens under the influence of the hypopituitry axis
that directs its activity and growth. In fact, in the
active stage of a period, several follicles get
recruited monthly, but eventually just one follicle can
reach full maturity to produce estrogen. The follicular ovarian
cyst then changes into the corpus luteum after
ovulation and starts producing progesterone till the
commencement of the next period. If the fertilization
does not take effect, it begins to
wither.
Follicular
dysgenesis usually happens due to dysfunction of the
hypothalamic-pituitary or on account of the female's
inherent anatomical defects. If follicular development
is withheld, it results in a luteal cyst. As a matter of
fact, two functional cysts are likely to develop - (a)
Follicular ovarian cyst, more precisely, Graafian
Follicular Cyst that occur during the first half of the
period and (b) Corpus Luteal cyst that occurs in the
second half. The follicular ovarian
cyst's rupture is severe, sharp and raises
unilateral pain during the mid cycle and this may lead
to the follicular ovarian cyst and irregular period
issues - this is caused by misbalancing of hormones.
Besides, it gives a feeling of fullness in the lower
pelvic region covering the entire abdominal area. When
there is follicular ovarian cyst and irregular period,
it also comes with vomiting, blood spots and
nausea.
Some
of the outstanding symptoms of ovarian cysts are pain in
the abdomen or the lower pelvic region and it starts and
ends suddenly, and it can also be severe, sudden and
sharp in nature; irregular and untimely menstrual
periods; a feeling of fullness in the lower pelvic
region and abdominal area. Ovarian cysts symptoms also
comprise pain in pelvic girdle during menstrual period
(usually felt at the lower back); vaginal uneasiness and
bloodspots, pain during or after sex, pain after
exercise, nausea, breast tenderness, problems in passing
urine or stool, obesity and
others.
Follicular
ovarian cyst and irregular periods can be best
healed using holistic remedies. Since the cyst can be
caused by many factors, the best option is to identify
all of them, and this is what the holistic approach does
- this is because the holistic approach treats the body
as a whole. And once the causes of follicular ovarian
cyst and irregular periods are taken note of, then each
cause can be treated individually with the holistic
approach. This is why this approach is so much more
successful.
