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 very scared that my condition might worsen. Please advise on how effective it is to address ovarian aging.Doctor's answer:
Hello, premature ovarian failure refers to the phenomenon of menopause occurring before the age of 40 due to the weakening of ovarian function. The characteristics include primary or secondary amenorrhea accompanied by a decrease in gonadotropin levels and a reduction in estrogen levels, along with a series of varying degrees of low-estrogen symptoms such as hot flashes, excessive sweating, facial flushing, decreased libido, and amenorrhea leading to infertility. It is recommended that you visit a hospital promptly and undergo estrogen-progestogen replacement therapy under the guidance of a doctor to alleviate symptoms, prevent long-term complications (such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and early-onset dementia), and prevent uterine atrophy. Wishing you health and beauty!In addition to medication for treating ovarian aging, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
