Menstrual Disorders Treatment

Menstrual concerns are among the most common reasons women seek gynaecological care — yet many women normalise symptoms they have experienced for years, unaware that effective treatment is available. Abnormal menstrual bleeding, painful periods, and cycle irregularity are not simply inconveniences to be endured; they are clinical symptoms that warrant proper evaluation. Dr. Ruby Rashmi provides thorough assessment and evidence-based management of the full spectrum of menstrual disorders in Dubai.

What Are Menstrual Disorders?

A menstrual disorder refers to any deviation from a normal menstrual pattern that causes symptoms, distress, or impacts quality of life. This encompasses a wide range of presentations that require clinical attention.

🔹 Oligomenorrhoea

Infrequent periods (cycles longer than 35 days).

🔹 Amenorrhoea

Absent periods for 3 months or more in women who previously menstruated.

🔹 Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (Menorrhagia)

Excessive bleeding that interferes with daily activities.

🔹 Dysmenorrhoea

Painful periods, ranging from mild to severely debilitating.

🔹 Intermenstrual Bleeding

Bleeding or spotting occurring between your regular periods.

🔹 Postcoital Bleeding

Any bleeding that occurs following sexual intercourse.

🔹 Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS/PMDD)

Physical and psychological symptoms in the week before menstruation.

Common Underlying Causes

Menstrual disorders can arise from a range of conditions including:

Diagnosis & Evaluation

Accurate diagnosis is essential before initiating treatment. Dr. Ruby Rashmi conducts a structured evaluation that includes a detailed menstrual history, physical examination, targeted blood investigations (including hormonal and thyroid profiles), and pelvic ultrasound. Where intrauterine pathology is suspected, hysteroscopy may be recommended for direct uterine cavity assessment.

Treatment Options

Hormonal therapy (oral contraceptives, progesterone, or targeted agents)

Non-hormonal medical management

Lifestyle and nutritional guidance

Minimally invasive procedures (hysteroscopic polypectomy)

Management of underlying conditions driving menstrual dysfunction
