Patient's question:
I have had a delayed period for two weeks and it hasn't arrived yet. I checked at a local hospital and had an ultrasound and a transvaginal ultrasound. The doctor said I am not pregnant and that my corpus luteum is enlarged. I would like to ask the doctor if my condition is serious, and what exactly is meant by an enlarged corpus luteum, and......Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is mainly a manifestation of endocrine disorder leading to delayed menstruation. It is recommended to treat it based on syndrome differentiation and prescribe Chinese herbal medicine for regulation, combined with acupuncture and progesterone injection.The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
