Patient's question:
Doctor, I have irregular menstruation. The doctor thinks that these medications should be taken starting from the fifth day of the menstrual cycle. Did you take the progesterone together on the ninth day? Did you take it after taking the other medications for nine days, or on the ninth day after the menstruation? The doctor didn't explain it very clearly to me, so I'm asking. What are these medications approximately like?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is inferred that you have irregular menstruation and are being treated with a sequential estrogen-progestogen therapy to regulate your menstrual cycle! If you are undergoing artificial cycle therapy to regulate your menstruation, estrogen is taken orally starting from the fifth day of your period and continued until the 20th day. On the 15th day of estrogen intake, progesterone is administered and taken until the 20th day. Both medications are then stopped, and menstruation usually occurs 3-7 days after stopping the medication. Gynecological diseases are a common condition that can easily occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to the hygiene of the vaginal area, with a light diet as the foundation.
