What should I do if my menstrual cycle is irregular and the endometrium is thickened?

Patient's question:

Irregular menstruation, endometrial thickening. The doctor prescribed progesterone capsules, which I took for 13 days. During this period, I had continuous bleeding. After stopping the medication for two days, the bleeding increased significantly, with large clots-like substances passing out. I also experienced lower abdominal pain and aching waist. Do I need topical medication?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, taking progesterone will lead to menstruation after stopping the medication. Carefully observe the amount and duration of bleeding. If the bleeding occurs around 7 days, there is no need to worry about it. Pay attention to personal hygiene, rest, and maintain a good mental state. Avoid excessive stress and relax. The recurrence of gynecological diseases severely affects women's health. Patients need to pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and avoiding sexual activity in daily life.
