Patient's question:
I used to often stay up late due to work pressure. As a result, my period refused to come. At first, I didn't pay attention, but later it became serious to the point where it stopped for a whole year. When I went to the hospital, the doctor said I had an endocrine disorder and prescribed traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. After stopping for a year, I took traditional Chinese medicine for 5 months, but it still hasn't returned. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Due to work pressure, frequent staying up late, and irregular menstruation are also common reasons. Currently, I have been experiencing amenorrhea for a year. First, hormone six tests and a gynecological ultrasound should be conducted to carefully examine the endometrial thickness to confirm the cause of amenorrhea. If Chinese medicine is ineffective, an ultrasound should be performed to rule out organic inflammation. If the irregular menstruation is the cause, estrogen and progesterone should be used to create an artificial cycle to promote menstruation. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to decreased immunity.
