Patient's question:
I have irregular periods for over ten years. Sometimes I only get my period every two or three months. It's heavy and painful. I suspect it's caused by hormonal imbalance. Do you need to check the six hormones for irregular periods?Doctor's answer:
You have menstrual irregularities, and your medical history is quite long. In this case, it is generally necessary to first undergo a thorough ultrasound examination to rule out any organic inflammation. At the same time, you should have a test for six hormones to determine if the irregularities are caused by hormonal imbalances, such as luteal phase deficiency. Only after a clear diagnosis can targeted treatment for regulating menstruation be applied.Eat more soy products, and take further treatment measures based on the specific cause identified from the examination results. You should also appropriately consume more seafood, beef, and lamb in your daily diet.
