Hello, premature ovarian failure refers to women who have established regular menstrual cycles, experiencing persistent amenorrhea and atrophic changes in genital organs before the age of 40 due to ovarian dysfunction. This condition is often accompanied by elevated levels of gonadotropins and decreased estrogen levels. Clinical manifestations include varying degrees of menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, excessive sweating, vaginal dryness, and decreased libido, leading to premature aging in patients and causing significant physical and mental distress, as well as difficulties in intimate relationships. In recent years, the number of patients with premature ovarian failure has been increasing, and the average age of onset has shown a downward trend. The causes of premature ovarian failure are multifaceted, with major factors possibly related to excessive mental stress in modern women.
