Patient's question:
22-year-old female, irregular menstruation. Previously, her period arrived on March 22nd and ended on the 27th, but she hasn't had her period since then. How should she proceed with treatment? If she wants to undergo a thorough examination, which tests should she have done?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your period came on March 22nd, it's still only April 17th now, and it hasn't been a full month yet. If your period is usually delayed, you can have a fasting blood test for 6 hormone levels on the third or the third day after your next period. At the same time, have a color Doppler ultrasound to check for any issues. You can also take traditional Chinese medicine for regulation, and if your period is delayed, you can take progesterone capsules. For gynecological patients, in addition to medication for relief, it's also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, during treatment, pay attention to hygiene and keep the private area clean at all times. It's also necessary to remind female patients to have regular follow-up examinations.
