Patient's question:
I always have irregular periods, it's so annoying. What should I do? Every month, my period doesn't come on time, and besides that, I have a stomachache before and after my period. I'm also extremely irritable. Every time my period doesn't come on time, I worry if I'm pregnant or something. It's usually because it's delayed.Doctor's answer:
Irregular and frequent delayed menstruation often accompanied by emotional instability should first be considered as caused by endocrine disorders. It is recommended to have blood tests for hormone levels at the hospital on an empty stomach during the menstrual period (3-5 days). Additionally, after the menstruation ends, a routine vaginal discharge test should be conducted to rule out the possibility of gynecological infections. Based on the test results, effective medication should be prescribed accordingly. It is also crucial to adjust one's emotions and maintain a stable mood. Gynecological diseases pose a serious threat to women's health, and patients should pay attention to follow-up tests after the menstrual period, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and stimulating foods.
