  In BPES type I, menarche is usually normal, followed by oligomenorrhea and secondary amenorrhea. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  While they began menstruating at approximately 14 years old, they each had an irregular menarche cycle, experiencing oligomenorrhea and then amenorrhoea before 38 years of age. [ijbs.com]

Thus, decreased apoptotic and antiproliferative activities caused by mutant forms of FOXL2 found in BPES patients may at least partially contribute to the pathophysiology of ovarian dysfunction. [jstage.jst.go.jp]

Being aware of the characteristic clinical features of blepharophimosis, ptosis, epicanthus inversus and telecanthus will prevent unnecessary investigations, aid early genetic diagnosis, inform about possible associated features and will guide appropriate [pediatricneurosciences.com]

Now, many surgeons suggest correction of ptosis first, even at a very early age, to prevent amblyopia. Soft-tissue medial canthal and lateral canthal surgery can wait until the face is grown. [fr.slideshare.net]

Thus, we suggest correction of ptosis first, even at a very early age for the prevention of amblyopia, followed by correction of telecanthus and small HPFL at an older age. [nature.com]
