Long or irregular menstrual cycles may be linked with increased risk of NAFLD

Women with long or irregular periods are known to have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease, but researchers found these women may also be at risk for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), according to a new study published in the Endocrine Society's Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
