Patient's question:
My menstrual cycle is often delayed. The longest delay was the last time, which was delayed by a full 23 days. Is this very abnormal? What are the causes of menstrual irregularity? Besides my menstrual flow being light, how can I regulate it?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is low, which indicates menstrual irregularities. It is recommended that you promptly visit a gynecology department for laboratory tests of the six sex hormones, undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination of the endometrium, and check ovarian function. After a clear diagnosis is made, take medication under the guidance of a doctor to regulate your condition. Long-term menstrual irregularities can affect future fertility. During menstruation, pay close attention to preventing abdominal coldness and avoid catching a cold. Consume more protein-rich foods, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits. Gynecological diseases are prone to recurrence. During treatment, women should pay special attention to self-care, particularly in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay extra attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet.
