Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation, either it comes with an extremely small amount, or it doesn't come at all. The doctor recommended taking progesterone. Is it good to take progesterone for irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation first requires identifying the cause. If menstrual volume is reduced again, it is first necessary to check hormone levels. In addition to pelvic ultrasound of the uterine appendages to understand the condition of the endometrium, if it is an endocrine issue, active treatment for regulating menstruation should be implemented. It may not necessarily involve progesterone alone; estrogen and progesterone may need to work together for treatment. Solutions must be implemented based on careful examination results, and one should not blindly use medication.
