Can women get pregnant after menopause?

Patient's question:

In the future, if I get pregnant again, this month my period is delayed by more than 10 days and hasn't arrived yet. In the first few days, I took progesterone for 4 days, and the past two days there's been a little brown discharge. Is it possible that I'm going through menopause? Can I still get pregnant? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, your condition should not have reached menopause. Generally, menopause occurs around the age of 50 or 60. Your condition is likely due to poor follicular development, which has led to menstrual irregularities. However, in your case, the risk of pregnancy is relatively high. At your age, the development of oocytes may not be as good as when you were younger, and your body may not be as healthy as it used to be. Therefore, if you want to get pregnant, it is recommended that you first use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate your body. Once the follicular growth becomes more normal, you can then consider pregnancy.
Suggestions: Hello, for your condition, it is recommended that you first use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate your body before considering pregnancy. This will increase the likelihood of getting pregnant.
