A member asked:
I wanted to know when you suffered a lot of stress, is it one of the reasons to menstruate 4x a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too frequent: Having so many menstrual periods -- especially in a woman over 40 -- really needs to be evaluated by your gyn physician. Although stress can disrupt menstrual cycles, having 4 periods in a month may indicate fibroids or other problems that need addressing. If these periods are quite heavy or never really end, all the more reason to see your doctor. Be well.
