Patient's question:
What should be checked for irregular menstruation? My sister has been married for more than two years and has not been pregnant. She only had her period once right after getting married and hasn't had one since. Is infertility related to irregular menstruation? How can menstruation be stabilized?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation is treated based on the principles of topical medication, rebalancing the menstrual cycle, and ovulation induction, which often requires hormone therapy. If the irregularity is caused by reproductive organ tumors, such as common conditions like uterine fibroids or ovarian tumors, or by inflammation in other organs, such as thyroid or adrenal gland disorders, it is necessary to seek specialized medical attention to remove the underlying cause. Patients should visit a local specialized hospital for thorough examinations to diagnose the condition before proceeding with further treatment. Additionally, preventive measures should be taken, and medical attention should be sought promptly if any abnormalities are noticed.
