Prolonged cessation of menstrual cycles might result in complications such as infertility, psycho social developmental delays, Osteoporosis, fractures etc. Better understanding of physiology of menstruation is essential to understand the various causes of primary and secondary amenorrhea. Any disruption or functional abnormality in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis can result in abnormal menstruation or amenorrhea. Therefore it is crucial to identify this menstrual distress in women at early age to minimize the risks of reproductive dysfunction in premenstrual and post menstrual conditions.</p>}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Allied Medical Sciences and Clinical Research}, author={Dr.A.Jyothy and Dr.M.Sujatha and Deepika and K.Praveena}, year={2021}, month={Apr.}, pages={163–170} }
