What is the cause of menopause?

Patient's question:

There was nothing left. Later, I received similar treatments several times, but none of them worked. Finally, I went to a hospital where the doctor gave me ultraviolet blood irradiation for a continuous week. Additionally, I took estrogen and progesterone for three months. During the months I was on the medication, I had my period. After stopping the medication, I had it for three more months, but then it stopped again.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: When a woman enters puberty, menstruation occurs, which is a physiological change that occurs regularly in the endometrium under the regulation of the pituitary gland and ovaries. If menstruation does not occur on time every month, it may involve issues related to uterine development as well as the function of the pituitary gland and ovaries. Additionally, the following conditions may also induce amenorrhea: 1. Pituitary gland disorders, such as pituitary dysfunction, pituitary tumors, etc.; 2. Ovarian disorders, such as ovarian cysts, ovarian tumors, ovarian hypoplasia, etc.; 3. Endocrine diseases, such as Cushing's syndrome, hyperthyroidism, etc.; 4. Chronic diseases, etc. The causes vary, and so do the treatment methods. It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for examination. Based on the examination results, under the guidance of a doctor, you should receive symptomatic treatment. Wishing you good health.
