Patient's question:
22-year-old female, irregular menstruation. Previously, her period arrived on March 22nd and ended on the 27th. However, she hasn't had her period since then. What should she do for treatment? If she wants to undergo a thorough examination, which tests should she take?Doctor's answer:
The patient's last menstrual period was on March 22nd. Currently, the period has not arrived, and the consultation should include what tests to perform. Okay, if the period came on March 22nd, and it's only April 17th now, it hasn't been a full month yet. If the menstrual cycle is usually delayed, you can have a fasting blood test for 6 hormones on the third or fourth day of the next period. Additionally, an ultrasound can be done to check for any issues. Herbal medicine can also be used for regulation, and if the period is delayed, progesterone gel can be taken.Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a gynecological condition that is prone to occur.
