Patient's question:
I am 30 years old this year. Recently, I have been itchy down there, and my menstrual cycle is also irregular, with excessive leukorrhea. Please ask: Can women who are not married have irregular periods and still be infertile?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms, it is considered that the menstrual irregularity may be caused by sexual hormone disorders during puberty. It is possible to have ovulation disorders of the ovaries, and in most cases, if there are no abnormalities in the growth and development of internal and external genital organs, it can be improved through proper care without affecting fertility. It is recommended to undergo a systematic gynecological examination. For those who are not married, an ultrasound examination can be performed to check for any abnormalities in the development of the uterine appendages and signs of polycystic ovary syndrome. Blood tests can also be conducted to check the levels of sexual hormones, and then targeted hormone regulation can be taken. Commonly used methods include short-term birth control pills such as Marvelon, which are beneficial for stabilizing the endocrine disorder of one's own sexual hormones.
