Patient's question:
Since having my child, my weight has increased by over 30 pounds, and I've been staying up late. My child is now 10 years old. I have heavy body hair, and I feel down every month when my period is delayed by two weeks. This year, I had a thorough check-up and found out that I have hypothyroidism. After taking medication, my levels are now normal. However, my period only comes once every two months. Two years ago, I had a breast duct dilation surgery, and there was an inflammatory lump. Recently, I had a stomach issue, and there's another lump in my breast, which is a bit painful and feels warm. What kind of help can I get?Hello, what are some good ways to treat the lump? How do I deal with endocrine disorders? What medication should I use?
Doctor's answer:
Regulating the endocrine system primarily involves adjusting diet and exercise, supplemented by medication when necessary. It's important to develop good dietary habits, consuming more fresh fruits and vegetables, high-protein foods, and drinking plenty of water to aid digestion. At the same time, participate in various activities to exercise and enhance physical fitness. Additionally, maintain a scientific lifestyle, avoid frequent (late nights), to prevent disrupting normal physiological rhythms, triggering hormonal imbalance or deficiency, which may lead to other diseases. Ensure adequate rest and deep, sufficient sleep. Avoid overexertion and excessive excitement, and always keep a cheerful spirit.
