How is premature ovarian failure treated?

Patient's question:

The previous menstruation was not normal, but it came every month. This year, however, it has completely stopped. Without the of the menstrual period, but considering that I am still young, I felt uneasy. So, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The diagnosis was that the lack of menstruation was due to premature ovarian failure. Can premature ovarian failure be relieved? What kind of assistance is needed: How to treat premature ovarian failure?

Doctor's answer:

Treatment methods for premature ovarian failure primarily involve appropriately supplementing exogenous estrogen and progesterone to compensate for the insufficient ovarian function and slow down the pathological process. A cyclical hormone replacement therapy is generally adopted, with a 28-day treatment cycle. From day 1 to day 21, low-dose natural estrogen is taken daily, and natural progesterone is added from day 12 to day 21. Then, medication is discontinued for 7 days, which can achieve good results.
