Patient's question:
I recently just started preparing to get married with my fiancé, and we plan to have a baby together after the wedding. However, recently I suddenly noticed that my menstrual cycle is a bit irregular—sometimes it comes earlier, sometimes later. I feel very anxious about it. I would like to ask the doctor if menstrual irregularity can affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
If there is a condition of menstrual irregularity, if it is relatively mild, most of the time it will not affect the next step of conception. However, if the symptoms are more pronounced, it may be related to the influence of hormone levels in the body. If the hormone levels in the body are abnormal, this condition is more likely to affect the next step of conception. Therefore, it is advisable to first focus on careful observation. If necessary, an ultrasound examination can be performed to thoroughly investigate the cause, combined with a detailed check of the six sexual hormones. This can help identify the reason and appropriate treatment can be administered to regulate the menstrual cycle.
