Patient's question:
I used to have very regular periods, but recently, for some reason, they've been getting more and more off. There are issues with the timing, flow, and color. Could it be that I have some kind of illness? Please ask: What are the routine tests to be done for irregular periods?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are multiple different reasons that can cause menstrual disorders in clinical diagnosis, such as interference from nervous system issues, environmental factors, stress, emotions, etc. Second, endocrine diseases, and third, certain other diseases like inflammation or tumors affecting the menstrual cycle, or incorrect medication use, such as hormonal drugs. It is recommended that you undergo ultrasound and related tests for six sex hormones at a professional gynecological hospital. Clarify the cause of the menstrual disorder to receive targeted treatment. Avoid blind medication use, as it may lead to hormonal imbalance in the body and worsen the condition. During the menstrual period, pay attention to preventing colds, maintaining a proper diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and ensuring good and sufficient deep sleep.
