Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation. The blood test results for the six sexual hormones showed that the serum prolactin level was 40.08. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: I have seen a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but the results were not significant. What kind of help do you want: The doctor prescribed these medications for me, saying they are birth control pills, but they can protect my fertility and stabilize my menstruation: {yao-Loestrin 20- ethinyl estradiol and cyproterone acetate tablets, medroxyprogesterone acetate tablets, bromocriptine mesylate tablets. Hello, do these medications have significant side effects? Are they suitable for you to take?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally, cases like yours are caused by endocrine disorders leading to menstrual irregularities. The Western medicine you mentioned also has certain side effects and should not be taken long-term. You can consider external hormone replacement therapy combined with TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) for syndrome differentiation and treatment. TCM has distinct characteristics and advantages in the field of gynecology and often has minimal or no side effects. Depending on different constitutions and causes, various treatment methods can be adopted to guide the body's natural tendencies, aiming to restore the menstrual cycle and achieve menopause recovery. It is recommended to consult a regular TCM practitioner for follow-up treatment. The recurrence of gynecological conditions poses serious harm to women's health. Patients should pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and avoid sexual activity in daily life.
