Patient's question:
How is premature ovarian failure treated? I am 38 years old and want to have a second child, but a thorough examination revealed premature ovarian failure. How is premature ovarian failure treated just now?Doctor's answer:
Premature ovarian failure is primarily addressed by appropriately metabolizing exogenous estrogen and progesterone to compensate for the decline in ovarian function and slow down the pathological process. A cyclic hormone replacement therapy is generally adopted, with each treatment cycle lasting 28 days. From day 1 to day 21, a low-dose natural estrogen is taken daily, and from day 12 to day 21, natural progesterone is added. Then, the medication is stopped for 7 days. For severe gynecological patients, it is recommended to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid switching medications arbitrarily, as this may lead to counterproductive effects. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
