Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Age,
over weight ,
irregular menses
All these symptoms may be due to,
1 Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease ( pcod) , diagnosis can be confirmed by an ultrasound of both ovaries as this is a most common disease in this age group of patient and these symptoms are most common.
So consult a gynecologist and get his opinion.
2 Fibroid in uterus , get in ultrasound of uterus and consult a gynecologist as irregular menses, scanty menses dysfunctional uterine bleeding are common features in fibroid ( endometriosis).
3 Hormonal imbalance is the least common cause.
So consultation with a gynecologist may be helpful .
Good luck.
