Patient's question:
I want to ask if it's okay to take progesterone when menstrual flow is low. I usually have very little menstrual flow, and it's basically over in three days. My classmate said this must not be normal, but I don't know what to do. I heard from others that progesterone can help regulate menstruation, so can I take progesterone? Awaiting your reply online.Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is often considered to be closely related to relatively low levels of sex hormones in the body. Do not take progesterone blindly. Progesterone is a medication that contains progestogen. It is necessary to consult with a doctor in the outpatient clinic and consider targeted symptomatic treatment based on the results of the six female hormone indicators. If necessary, symptomatic treatment should be coordinated. In daily life, it is recommended to supplement with foods rich in high-quality protein. Gynecological diseases are a type of gynecological condition that is prone to recurrence. During medication, women should pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay more attention to cleanliness during the treatment period.
