Patient's question:
I have irregular periods. Usually, they only last three days, and the timing is unstable. The flow is so light that only pantyliners are needed. I previously heard from a friend that traditional Chinese medicine can regulate them. I have taken many herbal remedies, spending quite a bit of money, but it hasn't made a difference. If I have irregular periods, would taking dydrogesterone tablets be effective?Doctor's answer:
If the irregular menstrual cycle can be regulated with progesterone tablets under the guidance of a doctor, but first, it is necessary to promptly go to the hospital to have blood drawn to check for progesterone deficiency or other causes. Then, it will be safer to start medication. Pay attention to taking care of your body, relaxing your emotions, and not being under pressure. Under normal circumstances, it is necessary to take medication according to the prescribed course, while also paying attention to preventing anemia and other issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
