The main causes of having a menstrual cycle every half month include both functional and organic factors. Functional factors primarily involve endocrine imbalances and ovarian dysfunction in women, leading to shortened menstrual cycles and changes in menstrual flow. Organic factors are due to diseases in the reproductive system, such as uterine fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease, and ovarian lesions.
