How to deal with poor follicular development?

Patient's question:

Not pregnant for half a year, suddenly missed her period in December, took progesterone for five days at the end of the month, and got her period. The ovulation test showed poor follicular development.

Doctor's answer:

Poor follicular development is a type of ovulation disorder, and it is necessary to identify the underlying cause first. Symptomatic treatment should then be administered to achieve the best results. Factors that can cause ovulation disorders include:
Central nervous system anovulation;
Hypothalamic anovulation;
Pituitary anovulation;
Ovarian anovulation;
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS);
Luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome (LUFS);
Others: Endocrine disorders outside the gonads, such as thyroid dysfunction, adrenal cortical dysfunction, and some systemic diseases, can also affect ovarian function regulation and lead to ovulation disorders.
