Risk factors
The risk factors vary among young and old women and if there are any medical conditions or diseases that could cause someway menorrhagia. In a regular cycle, releasing an egg from the ovaries stimulates the body to produce progesterone. This female hormone is more essential for maintaining a normal period.
Heavy menstrual bleeding in adolescent girls is because of anovulation. Teenage girls are particularly prone to anovulatory cycles in the first year after their first menstruation.
Whereas in older women is due to uterine pathology, including fibroids, polyps, and adenomyosis; however, other problems such as uterine cancer, bleeding disorders, drug side effects, and liver or kidney disease can contribute.
