What causes irregular menstrual periods?

When a woman has kidney disease, her periods tend to be irregular. Once she begins dialysis, her periods may even stop altogether. Because kidney function is below 20 percent of normal, a woman is less likely to conceive because dialysis does not perform all of the tasks of the kidneys. A higher level of waste products builds up in the body than it would with a normal kidney. This prevents egg production and affects menstruation.

How to treat irregular periods?

About 50 percent of women on dialysis can get their periods again if they accept erythropoietin treatments. This treatment can improve hormone levels and help the treatments of anemia. Under such a condition, erythropoietin therapy can increase a woman’s fertility, so birth control should be used if a woman does not want to become pregnant.
