How long should you follow up after taking dydrogesterone tablets for irregular menstruation?

Patient's question:

I took the dydrogesterone tablets and my period came. After it was clean for two days, I took 3 days of progesterone tablets again. Then, after a week, it came again. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The progesterone tablets are a hormone-based medication, and after discontinuation, there may be a withdrawal bleeding, which is a normal reaction of the drug. Currently, you have vaginal bleeding. It is recommended that you first carefully observe the amount of bleeding and the timing of the skin breakdown. If it is excessive, you can take some hemostatic medication and pay attention to preventing colds. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. For gynecological patients, in addition to proper medical treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care training, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean.
