What should I do if my period is irregular and I am not taking progesterone?

Patient's question:

Menstruation hasn't come for 48 days. I had an ultrasound, and everything was normal. The endometrium is 7 mm. The doctor asked me to take progesterone for five days and then have a six-hormone test. I have taken it for five days, and now it has been six days since then, but my period still hasn't come. Should I focus on taking progesterone now?

Doctor's answer:

Endometrium 0.7 is still considered relatively thin. It is recommended that if you have taken progesterone for six days and it hasn't arrived, you should continue taking it diligently. The endometrium should be conditioned to 0.8 to 1.0. For gynecological disease patients, in addition to medication for relief, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care training. For example, pay more attention to personal hygiene in the private area, and avoid sexual activity during medication. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations.
