The female undergoes dramatic monthly hormonal changes during each menstrual cycle affecting her emotional and physical state. During these changes sometimes she suffers from some gynaecological problems Nashtartava is one of them. As per classics, Nashtartava is considered as an Avaranajanya Vyadhi in which female suffers from Yathochita kale Adarshanam (Delayed menses/absence of menses), Alparta (scanty flow) and Yonivedana (painful menses). This condition can be compared with oligomenorrhoea or secondary amenorrhea. The ratio of such kinds of menstrual disorders is rising day by day which becomes a precursor of other health issues like infertility, mental and physical stress, etc. Oligomenorrhoea or infrequent menstruation, usually present in a woman with secondary symptoms like acne, obesity, dandruff, infertility etc. so treatment of Nashtartava is very necessary. For its treatment, the use of Agneya and Vata Kapha Shamaka Dravya is mentioned in the classics. Acharya Bhavmishra indicates the use of Jyotishmatiyadi Yoga for the management of Yonidosha along with Nashtartava. Jyotishmatyadi Yoga having Katu, Tikta Rasa, Tikshana Guna, Ushna Virya and Katu Viapaka and Vata Kapha shamaka property so effectively act on Nashtartava.

SUMMARY The concentrations of FSH, LH, prolactin, oestradiol and progesterone were measured in peripheral plasma and follicular fluid of women throughout the menstrual cycle. With the exception of prolactin, concentrations of pituitary and steroid hormones in follicular fluid correlated with those in peripheral plasma. Follicle-stimulating hormone was present in a greater number of small follicles ( < 8 mm) during or just after the peaks of FSH in peripheral plasma. During the mid-follicular phase the concentration of both FSH and oestradiol in fluid from large follicles ( ≥ 8 mm) was high. During the late follicular phase the large follicles ( ≥ 8 mm) contained high amounts of progesterone in addition to oestradiol, low physiological levels of prolactin, and concentrations of LH and FSH about 30 and 60% respectively of those found in plasma. By contrast no large 'active' follicles ( ≥ 8 mm) were found during the luteal phase although many contained both LH and FSH. Luteinizing hormone was present in a proportion of small follicles ( < 8 mm) during the late follicular and early luteal but not at other stages of the menstrual cycle. It is suggested that a precise sequence of hormonal changes occur within the microenvironment of the developing Graafian follicle; the order in which they occur may be of considerable importance for the growth of that follicle and secretory activity of the granulosa cells both before and after ovulation.

Abstract : Pre Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a collection of physical symptoms, psychological, and emotions associated with the woman's menstrual cycle and consistently occur during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle due to hormonal changes associated with the current cycle of ovulation (release of eggs from the ovary) and menstruation. Some of the complaints were felt during PMS, such as headache, back pain, breast pain, sleep disorders, and more than a few complaints can cause anxiety in women with PMS. This research was conducted observational analytic with cross sectional method. levels of anxiety and sleep quality in adolescent girls (as dependent variable). The sample used in this research were 30 students. Total sampling is a sampling technique in which the number of samples is equal to the population. there is a significant correlation between the severity of PMS with the level of anxiety. A positive correlation coefficient indicates that the relationship between the severity of PMS with anxiety levels. The more severe or severe PMS level, the level of anxiety is also heavier. Conversely, the mild severity of PMS, the anxiety level is also lighter. There is a significant correlation between the severity of PMS with the quality of sleep.Keywords : severity PMS, level of anxiety, quality sleep, adult Abstrak : Pre Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) merupakan kumpulan gejala fisik, psikologis, dan emosi yang terkait dengan siklus menstruasi wanita dan secara konsisten terjadi selama tahap luteal dari siklus menstruasi akibat perubahan hormonal  yang berhubungan dengan siklus saat ovulasi (pelepasan sel telur dari ovarium) dan menstruasi. Beberapa keluhan yang dirasakan saat PMS yaitu sakit kepala, sakit punggung, nyeri pada payudara, gangguan tidur, dan lain-lain.Akibat dari beberapa keluhan yang dirasakantersebut dapat menimbulkan kecemasan pada wanita yang mengalami PMS. Penelitian ini dilakukan secara observasional analitik dengan metode pendekatan cross sectional. tingkat kecemasan dan kualitas tidur pada remaja putri (sebagai variabel dependen). Sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 30 siswi. Total sampling adalah teknik pengambilan sampel dimana jumlah sampel sama dengan populasi. terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat keparahan PMS dengan tingkat kecemasan. Koefisien korelasi yang positif menunjukkan bahwa hubungan antara tingkat keparahan PMS dengan tingkat kecemasan. Semakin parah atau berat tingkat PMS, maka tingkat kecemasan juga semakin berat. Sebaliknya, semakin ringan tingkat keparahan PMS, maka tingkat kecemasan juga semakin ringan. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat keparahan PMS dengan kualitas tidur.Kata kunci : tingkat keparahan,PMS, tingkat kecemasan, kualitas tidur, remaja.

Aim: To see if there was a link between menstruation issues and psychological stress among young medical students. Methods: A non-probability convenient sampling method was used to conduct an observational (cross-sectional) study on a sample of 180 university-bound students. Students were assessed for menstrual regularity associating with psychological stress by using Perceived Stress Scale in different universities of Lahore. Results: The study included approximately 92% of females with a regular menstrual cycle and 8% of females with an irregular menstrual cycle.While among irregular menstrual cycles, 5 had high levels of stress, 7 had moderate levels of stress, and 3 had mild levels of stress. The normal menstrual cycle group had 40 females with high levels of stress, 121 females with moderate levels of stress, and four females with low levels of stress. Conclusion: Although fewer students suffered from menstruation difficulties, the majority of them, including those who did not, experienced psychological stress.

AbstractThe cerebellum contains the vast majority of neurons in the brain and houses distinct functional networks that constitute at least two homotopic maps of cerebral networks. It is also a major site of sex steroid hormone action. While the functional organization of the human cerebellum has been characterized, the influence of sex steroid hormones on intrinsic cerebellar network dynamics has yet to be established. Here we investigated the extent to which endogenous fluctuations in estradiol and progesterone alter functional cerebellar networks at rest in a woman densely sampled over a complete menstrual cycle (30 consecutive days). Edgewise regression analysis revealed robust negative associations between progesterone and cerebellar coherence. Graph theory metrics probed sex hormones’ influence on topological brain states, revealing relationships between sex hormones and within-network integration in Ventral Attention, Dorsal Attention, and SomatoMotor Networks. Together these results suggest that the intrinsic dynamics of the cerebellum are intimately tied to day-by-day changes in sex hormones.

Transverse vaginal septum is one of the variants of Mullerian duct anomaly, caused as a result of defective fusion or recanalisation of vaginal and Mullerian organs. At an early age, it commonly presents as primary amenorrhea along with cyclical abdominal pain while later on usually it presents as dyspareunia and infertility. Our 22-year-old patient presented with secondary amenorrhea. It is very unusual for a transverse vaginal septum to cause secondary amenorrhea. MRI and clinical examination raised the suspicion of transverse vaginal septum causing secondary amenorrhea. She attained regular menstrual cycle after septum excision. The proposed theory behind it is obliteration of microperforated transverse vaginal septum because of menstrual blood and cell debris. Thus, a rare possibility of transverse vaginal septum should also be considered as a differential diagnosis of secondary amenorrhea.

Athletes engaged in rigorous training programs expend large amounts of energy and require appropriate energetic compensation to maintain or improve performance. If these exercise regimens are not fueled sufficiently, a negative energy balance will likely emerge and lead to a broad spectrum of menstrual cycle disturbances and less than optimal performance. This review examines the theory and evidence surrounding energy availability and reproductive function. Implications for performance and treatment strategies are also addressed. Key words: energy intake, energy expenditure, energy availability, menstrual disorders, LH pulsatility, amenorrhea

Context The aim of this study was to assess the plasma leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin/NAMPT, omentin-1, vaspin, apelin, TNF-α, IL-6 and RBP4 levels in relation to hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle in young, healthy, normal-weight women. Methods The study involved 52 young, healthy, normal-weight women. Anthropometric parameters, body composition and levels of plasma leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin/NAMPT, omentin-1, vaspin, apelin, TNF-α, IL-6 and RBP4 in addition to serum FSH, LH, estradiol, progesterone, 17-OH progesterone, androgens, SHBG and insulin concentrations were measured during a morning in fasting state three times: between days 2–4, days 12–14 and days 24–26 of the menstrual cycle. Results Plasma adiponectin, omentin-1, resistin and visfatin/NAMPT, apelin, TNF-α, IL-6 and RBP4 concentrations were stable during the menstrual cycle, while leptin and vaspin levels were significantly higher in both the midcycle and the luteal phases than those in the follicular phase. Multivariate regression analyses revealed that changes in leptin and vaspin levels between the follicular and the luteal phase are strongly related to changes in total testosterone levels. Conclusions Our results revealed stable levels of adipokines during the phases of the physiological menstrual cycle, except for leptin and vaspin, which showed increased levels in both the midcycle and the luteal phases. This effect was significantly associated with changes in the secretion of testosterone, 17-OH progesterone and insulin in the luteal phase.
