Patient's question:
At the age of 19, I haven't had my period for over two and a half months. My menstrual cycle has always been irregular. I have had a thorough examination at the hospital, and my endometrium is 0.8 cm. I have never been pregnant, given birth, or had an abortion. I have taken Chinese medicine Yimucao and have been taking it continuously without any effect. How can I treat amenorrhea?Doctor's answer:
Due to the many reasons for amenorrhea, women undergo adjustments in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian-gonadal axis. Any issue in any of these links can lead to changes in menstruation. Common pathological causes of amenorrhea include pituitary microadenoma, premature ovarian failure, hyperprolactinemia, polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian tumors, etc. Your condition should be treated after identifying the underlying cause. It is recommended to undergo a comprehensive and thorough examination at the hospital to determine the cause and remove it, allowing menstruation to return to normal. In addition to treating gynecological issues, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a joyful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
