Patient's question:
Since the day before yesterday, I've been experiencing continuous bleeding from my lower body. I thought it was just my normal period. But I've been feeling increasingly weak and my energy is getting worse. I calculated that my period shouldn't be this time of the month. So I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found out it's gonorrhea. What medications are available for treating gonorrhea?Doctor's answer:
You have confirmed the presence of leukorrhea, which is a term used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and refers to one of the conditions associated with menstrual disorders. Therefore, it is recommended that you undergo a hormone panel test at a regular hospital's gynecology department to check for normal levels and identify any endocrine disorders. If the hormone levels are normal, it may be necessary to consider the possibility of gynecological inflammation. In such cases, it is important to conduct a thorough examination, such as an abdominal ultrasound or hysteroscopy, to confirm the underlying cause and provide targeted treatment.
