What is the reason for irregular menstruation and acne on the face?

Patient's question:

I didn't get my period last month, and this month's period only lasted for three days. Previously, my period was always five days long. My period is irregular again, and I've also developed some dark acne on my face. The acne is a bit painful when touched. What could be the reason for my irregular period and the acne on my face?

Doctor's answer:

Women with irregular menstruation are mostly considered to be related to endocrine hormone level disorders, which can lead to frequent pimples on the face. It is recommended to undergo a thorough examination of six female hormone indicators. If the hormone indicators are abnormal, hormone drugs should be used for symptomatic treatment, while also complementing some traditional Chinese medicine for auxiliary treatment. Drink more warm water, eat less sweet and greasy food, and apply metronidazole gel or tretinoin cream on the pimples.
