Patient's question:
I and my husband have never used contraception, and we have always looked forward to having our own child. However, nothing has happened so far. Last month, my husband and I went for a check-up, and we found out that I have premature ovarian failure. I was completely shocked. I am really scared now. Please:Doctor's answer:
Oral estrogen can be taken, such as diethylstilbestrol 0.5～1mg, once a night, for 22 consecutive days. On the 11th day of medication, start taking a progestogen, such as megestrol acetate (medroxyprogesterone acetate) 8～10mg, once a night, for 10 consecutive days. If using progesterone injections, begin on the 16th day of estrogen intake, with a daily intramuscular injection of 10mg, for a total of 5 consecutive injections. If taking ethinyl estradiol 5μg, take it once a night for 20～22 consecutive days, followed by a progestogen.In addition to timely gynecological treatment, friends with the condition should always maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can their immunity be strengthened and their belief in fighting the disease be enhanced. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor any changes in their symptoms, believing that this will surely drive the gynecological condition away.
