Patient's question:
I have been trying to conceive for a year and have not been pregnant. I usually have irregular periods, sometimes delayed by more than a week. Besides, I have always had acne and spots on my face, and my complexion is not good either. After seeing a Chinese medicine practitioner, they said I have endocrine disorders and need to be nourished before I may be able to get pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Endocrine disorders can lead to infertility, which is certain. Therefore, in order to maintain normal physiological functions in the body, women need to have sufficient and appropriate nutrition for digestion. Otherwise, some endocrine issues may reappear. Additionally, if a woman is in a long-term state of stress and emotional turbulence, it can disrupt hormone secretion in her body, resulting in endocrine disorders. Endocrine disorders can also lead to abnormal menopause, also known as anovulation, which is one of the main causes of female infertility. For women with severe gynecological conditions, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not switch to new medications at will, otherwise, the effectiveness may be counterproductive.
