Frequent menstruation is usually associated with organic diseases of the uterus and ovaries. Ultrasound can determine whether there are multiple uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, endometrial polyps, or submucosal fibroids. It may also be caused by endocrine disorders, such as luteal phase deficiency or premature ovarian failure. Six female hormones should be tested during menstruation, followed by appropriate medication to regulate the cycle. If frequent menstruation is due to premature ovarian failure, periodic regulation with estrogen and progesterone is required.
