Patient's question:
My colleague has always been very healthy, but recently has been feeling slightly unwell and has been experiencing frequent episodes of illness. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed her with female ovulation disorder. How is female ovulation disorder treated?Doctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder. In addition to infertility, patients often experience menstrual disorders such as hypomenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, or amenorrhea, as well as hirsutism and obesity. Western medical treatment, including hormone replacement therapy, is suitable for patients with insufficient endogenous estrogen or uterine hypoplasia. Artificial cycles can be initiated for 3 months, after which some patients may resume spontaneous menstruation. For those with uterine hypoplasia, medication may be required for 6-12 months to promote uterine growth and development. Close observation is necessary to determine whether menstruation occurs or if ovulation-inducing drugs should be administered. Ovulation induction treatments vary depending on the underlying pathophysiology of the ovulation disorder. Ovulation-inducing drugs can also be used in combination.
