Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 35 years old, and I have irregular periods. Since July, I have only had two periods. The doctor at the hospital prescribed three boxes of progesterone, saying that after taking it, I might have a period. Then, he asked me to come in for a six-hormone test during the 2-4 days of my period. I just finished the third box today, and I had a very small amount of bleeding. In this situation, should I continue taking the remaining box or stop?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described above, you should stop taking the medication. In your current condition, you should stop taking the drugs. Wait until between the 2nd and 4th day of your period to go to the hospital for a check-up on the six hormone tests, and then treat the symptoms accordingly. Maintaining a good mood is helpful for your body's recovery. The recurrence of gynecological diseases severely interferes with women's health. Patients need to pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and avoiding sexual activity throughout their lives.
