Brief Answer:
Needs proper evaluation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Your wife seems to have hormonal imbalance.
Please consult a gynecologist and have evaluation along the following lines -
1. Pelvic transvaginal ultrasound to evaluate the uterus and ovaries.
2. Hormonal profile - FSH, LH, TSH, Serum prolactin, adrenal hormones.
3. Complete blood count, liver and renal profile tests, glucose tolerance test.
Common causes of irregular cycles are - anxiety, stress, emotional turbulence, hectic travelling, recent changes in weight, ingestion of hormonal medications or medications that alter the menstrual cycle etc.
Polycystic ovaries, hypothyroidism, prolactinomas and endometrial pathologies also could cause such a picture.
Sometimes, premature ovarian ageing could lead to such symptoms, such as those your wife is experiencing. She needs a proper evaluation before starting a treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
