What should I do if my menstrual cycle was normal before but is now irregular?

Patient's question:

Irregular menstruation Previously, my menstruation was normal. Since I switched to training at a chemical plant, it has been occurring every 15-20 days. It has been like this for 5 consecutive months now.
I would like to ask you, Doctor:
1. Is this abnormal condition likely caused by the change in environment?
2. Does this abnormal phenomenon have any impact on my physical health?
3. What is the worst-case scenario? (I am quite satisfied with this training and don’t want to give it up unless absolutely necessary. However, if it seriously affects my health, my health is still the most important thing.)

Doctor's answer:

The menstrual cycle can also be easily affected by factors such as the environment, emotions, and geographical changes. It is recommended to take Chinese herbal medicine for regulation. You can consume some Chinese herbal medicine for nourishment, and if necessary, have a blood test for the six sex hormones on the third day of menstruation on an empty stomach. Based on the test results, hormone regulation should be taken. For gynecological patients, in addition to regular treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care training, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment, keeping the private area clean, avoiding sexual activity, and eating less spicy and irritating foods.
