What Are Menstrual Irregularities?
A normal menstrual cycle typically occurs every 21–35 days, lasts 2–7 days, and results in a predictable amount of bleeding. Menstrual irregularities occur in up to 30% of women when the timing, duration, or amount of bleeding falls outside these normal patterns.

OUR APPROACH
Vague Symptoms Deserve a Real Investigation.
At Integrative Whole Woman Gynecology, we believe that irregular periods are a symptom—not a diagnosis. Our goal is to identify the underlying cause and develop a personalized treatment plan that restores hormonal balance and promotes long-term health.
Your evaluation may include a comprehensive medical history, pelvic ultrasound, and laboratory testing to assess hormone levels, thyroid function, metabolic health, iron status, and other contributing factors. We combine evidence-based conventional medicine with personalized nutrition, lifestyle optimization, targeted supplementation, stress management, and, when appropriate, prescription medications or minimally invasive procedures.
