Study Notes

Irregular Menstrual Cycles and Painful Periods

  • Ovaries are the primary reproductive organs in women, responsible for producing eggs and hormones like estrogen and progesterone.
  • Irregular menstrual cycles: a common symptom of ovarian problems, as imbalances in hormone production can directly affect the timing and regularity of periods.
  • Painful periods (dysmenorrhea): can stem from various factors including endometriosis, fibroids, and pelvic inflammatory disease, all of which can be linked to the ovaries.
  • Therefore, option (a) Ovaries is the most likely answer.
