Patient's question:
I have my period, which was relatively normal at first, but then I experienced amenorrhea. Now, I can only maintain my period with artificial estrogen. I have a very favorite boyfriend, and we plan to get married, but I'm worried about my ability to get pregnant. Please ask: How is early ovarian failure treated?Doctor's answer:
General premature ovarian failure is usually caused by early neglect of one's health in women, due to factors such as environmental contamination or the implementation of procedures like miscarriage, D&C, or surgery, leading to the destruction of ovarian function. This results in premature aging of the ovaries. Moreover, premature ovarian failure can also bring about a series of symptoms, such as menstrual disorders, insomnia and frequent dreams, irritability, cardiovascular symptoms, etc. Currently, medical treatment methods generally involve the use of Western medicine. Although Western medicine is effective quickly, it only treats symptoms rather than the root cause, and the condition often recurs later. Additionally, the side effects of Western medicine are very significant. It's recommended to consult an experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
