Patient's question:
I have been experiencing vaginal dryness and a decrease in libido recently. After checking into the hospital, I was diagnosed with premature ovarian failure. What are the treatments for premature ovarian failure?Doctor's answer:
Premature ovarian failure is a gradual process. If early intervention and treatment are provided, the results should be much better. In daily life, it is recommended to consume more fresh vegetables, mushrooms, legumes, tubers, and fruits like apples and citrus, which are rich in vitamins and fiber. Western medicine generally focuses on hormone therapy, but now traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) seems to be quite effective as well. TCM believes that premature ovarian failure is caused by poor blood and Qi circulation, which fails to nourish the ovaries. Therefore, you might consider trying TCM. There are many treatment methods for premature ovarian failure, but since patients exhibit different symptoms, the chosen treatments vary. Thus, it is advised that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
