The lack or cessation of a woman's menstrual periods is referred to as amenorrhea, a medical disorder. Primary amenorrhea, which happens when a woman does not begin menstruation by the age of 16, and secondary amenorrhea, which happens when a woman who previously had regular menstrual cycles stops menstruating for three or more consecutive months, are two different types of amenorrhea. Menstrual bleeding that is excessively heavy or persistent is referred to as menorrhagia. Menstruation pain is referred to as dysmenorrhea. Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a term used to describe a group of mental and physical symptoms that appear a week or two before a woman's period.
