Patient's question:
A woman is 42 years old, and I am in my early 40s. Her menstrual cycle is always irregular. The doctor said it's due to low progesterone. She has taken some traditional Chinese medicine before, but it hasn't been very effective. So, how should it be treated? What should be done about irregular periods and low progesterone?Doctor's answer:
The main manifestations of menstrual disorders are abnormal menstrual cycles and bleeding volume, and even abdominal pain before or after menstruation. There are many reasons for this, such as poor mood, excessive fatigue, frequent smoking and drinking, and other unhealthy lifestyle habits, all of which can lead to menstrual disorders. The treatment approach involves identifying the root cause and treating it accordingly. Additionally, using traditional Chinese medicine or herbal remedies to regulate estrogen and progesterone levels in the body is recommended. It is also important to change some unhealthy habits in life, pay attention to regulating one's emotions, and focus on keeping warm during the menstrual period.
