Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern regarding your irregular menstrual cycles and associated pain.
Basically, the menstrual cycle is regulated by a precise balance of hormones. Hormone levels play a key role in premenstrual symptoms.
Any upset in this balance will present with irregularities. A problem with the ovaries, such as polycystic ovary syndrome, can cause menstrual irregularities. Uterine fibroid can cause painful menstrual cramps and heavy prolonged bleeding.
I suggest you schedule an appointment with a gynecologist, who can give you the answer you are seeking. A diagnosis can be made with the aid of obtaining a medical history, doing a physical and pelvic exam, and ordering any necessary blood test.
