Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm afraid my condition might worsen. Could you please advise where would be the ideal place to get tested for premature ovarian failure?Doctor's answer:
Premature ovarian failure, once diagnosed, does not require reversal. The best outcome is to maintain the current status and avoid focusing solely on alleviating menopausal symptoms. Although estrogen and progesterone can restore menstruation, the menstruation that occurs after their use is temporary. Once the medication is stopped, menstruation will cease. Long-term use of estrogen carries a risk of cancer, so from a health perspective, it is not recommended. However, natural estrogens like soy isoflavones can be used to stabilize menopausal discomfort.In addition to timely treatment, a patient's dietary habits and mental state are also particularly important during the treatment of premature ovarian failure. The patient must maintain a light diet and consistently keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary negative impacts on the recovery of premature ovarian failure.
