What Causes Intermittent Menstrual Bleeding And Bloating?

HI, Currently I am having various periods, after an absence of seven months. I am 51 yrs of age. The intervals of these periods are not what they used to be, when I was younger. I am experiencing lack of energy with also bloating problems. Is there something that you could suggest over the counter to help with this uneven menopause?

Hello,

In the current scenario, I would ask you to see a specialist for a proper evaluation and plan further management.

Since you are in the peri-menopausal age, these abnormal menstrual patterns happen.

Bloating is usually a hormone effect.

However, it is necessary to get a proper exam, a sonogram and hormone assay to confirm and also to see if there is a need for an endometrial biopsy in case of any endometrial hyperplasia or polyps.

Please do not go for self-medication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shanti Vennam, OBGYN
