Patient's question:
I am just 40 years old right now, but in the past few months, after my last menstrual period, it has been more than 3 months since then and I haven't had my period. I don't know what's going on. I feel like if I go through menopause now, it would be much too early for me. Hello, is it menopause if my period doesn't come?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation does not necessarily indicate menopause, and at your age, you are generally not yet at the age of menopause. In your case, it is important to consider menstrual irregularities. If you are sexually active, it is also necessary to consider the possibility of pregnancy. First, you should rule out pregnancy. If pregnancy is not the cause, you should consider menstrual irregularities. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound, sex hormone 6-item test, and other relevant examinations. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can then receive treatment for regulating and inducing menstruation.
