A member asked:
Is there any connection between being slightly overweight and having irregular menses most of the times?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Irregular menses: It's possible that there is no connection, however, if menses are always irregular, it would be prudent to be evaluated. Sometimes, being overweight with irregular menses can suggest poycystic ovary syndrome. An exam and some simple tests can be done to make this diagnosis.
