Hi! leukorrhea does not cause irregular menstruation...

Thanks for writing to HCM and sharing your personal health problem with us!

Well, your periods are getting shortened and the flow getting scantier; this is because there is some problem in your uterus; could be infection or effect of some surgery or some hormonal problem might be associated with ovaries also!

Whereas, leukorrhea is due to cervical infection/secretion/polyps etc;

THEREFORE, YOU NEED an ultrasound of lower abdomen and PAP test/microbiological tests of vaginal secretions for confirmation/detection of the disease.

Please see your gynecologist for a discussion.

regards,
