Patient's question:
Recently, I have frequently experienced reduced menstrual volume, shortened menstrual periods, and prolonged menstrual cycles. After examination, it was found to be premature ovarian failure. I would like to ask if premature ovarian failure can be treated. The diagnosis of premature ovarian failure.Doctor's answer:
Generally, a cyclical hormone replacement therapy is adopted, with a 28-day treatment cycle. From day 1 to day 21, a low dose of natural estrogen is taken daily, and natural progesterone is added from day 12 to day 21. Then, the medication is stopped for 7 days to allow menstruation.This method mimics the normal menstrual cycle of women, allowing the ovaries to gradually and fully restore their existing functions. This hormone replacement therapy requires persistence and continuous adjustment of the drug type, dosage, combination method, and administration route under the guidance of a doctor. If the hormone dosage is excessive or the hormone treatment duration is too long, or if some women have gynecological conditions such as breast diseases that are not suitable for hormone use, it may either worsen or alleviate the condition.
