Hi,
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Irregular periods is not related to the anal fissures and you are already being treated for the same.
Anal fissures is a condition in which you get small cuts at the anal verge.
This is usually recurrent and occur as a result of intestinal infection or due to passage of hard stools.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Take a laxative or stool softener as needed to have soft stools.
Sitz bath in a tub with warm water relieves pain.
Consult a General Surgeon for clinical examination, ano-proctoscopy if there is no pain.
He may prescribe you an antibiotic, Metronidazole and probiotics for 5 days.
Avoid the foods and beverages that cause the problems.
If the medical management fails to cure the fissures then you may need a small corrective surgery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
