Menstrual Regularity

Meaning

Menstrual Regularity is the consistent and predictable occurrence of the female reproductive cycle, characterized by a stable cycle length, duration of menses, and consistent pattern of hormonal fluctuations, primarily estrogen and progesterone. Clinically, regularity signifies a healthy, robustly functioning Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Ovarian (HPO) axis and is a vital, non-invasive indicator of overall female endocrine and metabolic health. Significant deviations from this regularity often signal underlying hormonal imbalances or systemic physiological stress.
