Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How can I stop menstruating?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify your questions. Women experience menstruation because, as they grow and develop, they enter puberty, after which their reproductive organs mature. The ovaries begin to undergo menopause, and if the released follicles do not encounter sperm, fertilization cannot occur, leading to pregnancy. This triggers a hormonal shift, causing the next cycle to begin. During this cycle, the endometrium starts to shed and break down, resulting in menstruation. This is a natural physiological feature of women and cannot be altered by personal will. If one forcibly uses medication to induce amenorrhea, it can also lead to ovarian dysfunction and premature aging, as well as other endocrine issues.
