How could I develop premature ovarian failure? What should I do? The kind of help I need: Can I still get pregnant with premature ovarian failure?Doctor's answer:
Premature ovarian failure refers to the phenomenon of menopause occurring before the age of 40 due to weakened ovarian function. Its characteristics include primary or secondary amenorrhea accompanied by a decrease in gonadotropin levels and a reduction in estrogen levels, as well as a series of varying degrees of low-estrogen symptoms such as hot flashes, excessive sweating, facial flushing, and decreased libido. The mechanism of premature ovarian failure is unclear, and treatment focuses on stabilizing symptoms and improving fertility. It is recommended to seek treatment at a formal hospital as soon as possible.
