Abstract

Context The time interval between the age at menarche and regulation of menstrual cycles (menstrual cycle developmental trajectory) is considered an indicator of the function of the reproductive system later in life. This study aimed to summarize the factors affecting this trajectory. Evidence Acquisition A comprehensive literature search in PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science was performed to identify studies investigating factors influencing the regularity of the menstrual cycle in adolescents. Results The interval between menarche and the onset of the regular menstrual cycle in adolescent girls may vary from several months to several years. Several factors, including genetic, race/ethnicity, intrauterine situation, social factors, geographical factors, lifestyle, and chronic diseases, are considered the predisposing factors for the trajectory. Conclusions Age at menarche and the onset of regular menstrual cycles are directly and indirectly influenced by several genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Understanding these factors may improve our practice in managing irregular menstrual cycles that commonly happen in the first years after menarche.
影响青少年月经周期发展轨迹的因素:叙事综述
月经初潮年龄与月经周期调节(月经周期发育轨迹)之间的时间间隔被认为是生命后期生殖系统功能的一个指标。本研究旨在总结影响这一轨迹的因素。我们在PubMed、Scopus、谷歌Scholar和Web of Science中进行了全面的文献检索,以确定影响青少年月经周期规律的因素。结果青春期少女月经初潮与正常月经周期的间隔可从几个月到几年不等。包括遗传、种族/民族、宫内情况、社会因素、地理因素、生活方式和慢性病在内的几个因素被认为是轨迹的易感因素。结论月经初潮年龄和月经周期的开始受遗传、环境和生活方式等因素的直接或间接影响。了解这些因素可以改善我们在月经初潮后的头几年通常发生的不规则月经周期的管理实践。
