A neuropsychiatric complication of oligomenorrhea according to iranian traditional medicine

Oligomenorrhea, a prevalent disease with serious complications, has been declared in the Avicenna traditional medicine in detail. Avicenna in his famous book, Cannonof Medicine, presents a syndrome termed ‘uterine strangulation’, as a complication of menstrual bleeding cessation and lack of sexual satisfaction. We have explainedthis syndrome from both traditional and conventional medicine viewpoints to propose a new hypothesis for diagnosis and treatment of women witholigomenorrhea and systemic signs/symptoms admitting to clinics for further evaluation. This hypothesis definitely needs to be further assessed and confirmed by strong clinical trials.
