Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Hormonal imbalance can give such problem. Other possibility is infection. It is better to have a pelvic examination and swab by Gynecologist to rule out infection. If there is infection then antibiotic therapy will help. If it is clear then checking hormone levels in blood will help to rule out any hormonal imbalance. In case of such imbalance taking hormonal drugs or combined contraceptive pills will be helpful to normalize this.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
