Patient's question:
What kind of food can regulate irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation is just a symptom. When treating irregularity, the first step should be to identify the underlying cause. Every component of the perinatal endocrine axis must be in a normal state. If any component malfunctions, the corresponding hormone levels will also change. Therefore, for women with irregular menstruation, it is essential to thoroughly examine hormone levels and ovarian function. Tests such as the electrochemical "shining" six-hormone test (best performed on days 2-5 of the menstrual cycle) and vaginal four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound can be conducted. Otherwise, do not use medication blindly, as menstrual-regulating drugs are all hormone-based. Not only do they affect various aspects of the body, but they also disrupt the endocrine system if the underlying cause has not been identified.
