Patient's question:
What are the dangers of irregular menstruation? Since giving birth to my baby, I have been completely focused on taking care of him and neglecting my own body, which has led to long-term irregular menstruation. Whenever my period comes, I experience lower back and waist pain. Additionally, the flow is light and only lasts for one or two days. How can irregular menstruation be treated?Doctor's answer:
The causes of menstrual disorders can be clinically categorized into two major types: functional and organic. Functional disorders include menstrual irregularities caused by endocrine dysfunction, while organic disorders involve conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, which can also lead to menstrual irregularities.Recommendation: It is best to consult a reputable public hospital in your area for a clear diagnosis and subsequent treatment. You will need to undergo gynecological ultrasound, routine vaginal discharge tests, and other examinations to determine if there are any organic causes. Followed by hormone tests to assess endocrine function, and obtain a definitive diagnosis. Under the guidance of a doctor, treatment should be implemented. Avoid taking medication indiscriminately. Only after thorough examination can the exact cause of menstrual disorders be identified, such as checking the health of the ovaries and uterus, and the normality of hormone secretion.
