Ideally, regular menstrual cycles each month with the period between 21 to 35 days each time the menstrual period. With a normal menstrual cycle, physiologically described, maternal reproductive organs tend to be healthier and not problematic. Either hormonal system, indicated by the continued egg production and regular menstrual cycles. In essence, the invisible mother believed in a healthy condition. Thus, with this normal cycle, the mother would be easier to get pregnant, set routines, calculate the fertile period.At fact, not all women have a normal menstrual cycle. Many of them are irregular menstrual cycles, the cycles do not have a specific pattern. Maybe at first menstrual cycle for more than 35 days, but later menstrual bleeding will occur outside the normal menstrual cycle. For example,
35-40 day cycle but the beginning of next month can not menstruated for 3 months. On the other hand, some are in month periods can experience more than once. For example, this month your period came on 10, then came back on the 25th of the same month. Menstruation that lasted less than 21 days categorized short cycle.

Both short-and long cycles, both showing irregularities in metabolism and hormonal system. The impact is similar, ie be more difficult to become pregnant. In the short cycle, women experience “unovulasi” because the egg is not too ripe so hard to be fertilized. In the long cycle, it indicates the egg cell is rarely produced or women experience infertility long enough. If the eggs are rarely produced by means of conception will be very rare. In fact, menstruation is a sign that women are fertile.

These menstrual irregularities also make it difficult to find any mother fertile and did not. Should, if regular menstruation, fertile period can be found easily. For example, if the 30-day cycle, the fertile period is expected 16 days after the first day of menstruation. In contrast to the long and short cycles, it’s hard to calculate fertile period because there is no formula that can be used.

However, she did not need to be discouraged. Because, with the sophistication of modern medicine, this can be overcome. Later the doctor will help the mother find what the cause, and then given an appropriate solution. Of course cooperation is needed more intense between mothers and couples with a doctor. Hopefully with therapy can be made as soon pregnant mothers.

Handling:

If there is a lack of hormones, you can include a lack of these hormones (eg, lack of the hormone estrogen, the hormone estrogen can be added). If there are excess hormones, the administration made certain that the hormone levels returned to normal (eg, levels of the hormone prolactin excess may be reduced by giving certain drugs). If there are hormonal imbalance, then added another hormone to be more balanced.

* Hormones Prolactin Overstated

In breastfeeding mothers, prolaktinnya hormone production is high enough. The hormone prolactin is often a mother never menstruated because this hormone levels suppress maternal fertility. In this case no problem, it is very good to provide opportunities for mothers to maintain their reproductive organs. Conversely, if you’re not breastfeeding, the hormone prolactin can also be high, usually caused by abnormalities in the pituitary gland located in the head.

Handling:

Production of excessive hormone prolactin can be caused by a great psychological stress or because there is a tumor on the pituitary gland produces more of the hormone prolactin.
