Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that my menstrual flow isn't very heavy, the color is also quite light, and it often gets delayed. Is this considered menstrual irregularity? I also want to ask: What treatment is most effective for endometrial atrophy?Doctor's answer:
For the situation you mentioned, it is recommended that you undergo a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure. If you do not wish to have a D&C, you can take progesterone orally for 3 days, then stop the medication. After stopping the medication, you may experience withdrawal bleeding again within 3-5 days. The shedding of the endometrium may be more complete, but the menstrual flow will be reduced. If the condition is severe, it is advised that the patient seek timely treatment. It is hoped that the patient can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition. The above answer is hoped to be helpful to you. Thank you.
