Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation has lasted for three or four years. Sometimes, it doesn't come for several months, and I can only get my period by taking progesterone. Traditional Chinese Medicine suggested I have an MRI of my brain, saying they were worried about a tumor in the pituitary gland. I'm very scared, so I haven't done it. After two months of herbal treatment, it hasn't been effective. My irregular menstruation has been going on for a long time. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The causes of menstrual disorders are multifaceted. Most considerations may be related to endocrine hormone level disorders. Of course, it is not excluded that there may be many factors related to diseases such as the pituitary gland or gynecological diseases. It is recommended to consider reviewing the gynecology department of a large hospital in your local area, improving relevant examinations, and then adopting a combined treatment method of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for symptomatic treatment. When necessary, surgical intervention may be required.
