Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation, checked hormone levels, all hormones were normal, progesterone level slightly low. Over a month without a period, the doctor recommended taking progesterone injections to induce menstruation first, then. However, I had a severe reaction to the progesterone injections and stopped after just two shots. Previously, I had taken progesterone capsules without any adverse effects, and my periods were normal for the past few months without medication. About a week after stopping the injections, my period arrived. The doctor then asked me to recheck my hormones. The results showed that all other hormones were normal, but the progesterone level was almost zero. The doctor prescribed Dian 35 and several boxes of traditional Chinese medicine for qi deficiency. After taking Dian 35 for 21 days, my period arrived again, but this time it was prolonged, lasting 10 days with light bleeding every day (instead of the usual 5 days). What should I do now? Should I continue taking the medication?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your situation requires taking the medication attentively. If the dosage is insufficient, you can add one tablet, and then stop taking the medication after 21 days, which will lead to another menstrual period. It is important to maintain dry and clean external genitalia at all times. Gynecological diseases are prone to occur, and during the treatment period, 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 genital area, with a light diet as the foundation.
