A member asked:

Is it possible for pms cause you to have irregular period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Bryan Treacy answered

Specializes in Gynecology

Yes: Pms is thought in some instances to be caused by inadequate Progesterone production from the ovary after ovulation leading to estrogen dominance for some or most cycles. This is an imbalance that can lead to irregular periods.
