Patient's question:
I am currently in Leqing and there is indeed a problem. It started when I ate an ice cream during my last menstrual period. I then experienced delayed menstruation, reduced menstrual flow, and sometimes mild abdominal pain. Additionally, I feel particularly down during my period. How should I treat this?Doctor's answer:
Recurring delayed menstruation and reduced menstrual flow are symptoms of menstrual irregularities, which may be related to hormonal level fluctuations in the body. It is recommended to visit a local hospital for a thorough examination using an ultrasound to rule out organic inflammation of the uterus and ovaries. Additionally, a blood test for six sex hormones should be conducted to assess hormonal levels. Under the guidance of a local physician, artificial cycle therapy or traditional Chinese medicine regulation can be adopted to help restore normal menstruation.
