Patient's question:
I am 18 years old this year. Since my first menstrual period, I have had irregular menstruation. I always thought it was because I was anemic and that it would improve later. But now that I am getting older, it is still irregular, and I am a bit worried. Hello, what foods are good for irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
The fundamental cause of menstrual disorders is due to dysfunctions in ovarian endocrine function or organic diseases of the reproductive system such as the uterus and ovaries. Abnormal thyroid function and anemia can also lead to menstrual irregularities. It is not something that can be simply adjusted by diet alone for some patients. It is advisable to seek follow-up care at a public hospital's gynecology department as soon as possible, undergo blood tests for six sex hormones and a detailed MRI of the uterus and ovaries to identify the underlying cause, and then implement targeted treatment and care.
