Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we haven't had any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he won't go. I'm afraid my condition will worsen. What is progesterone?Doctor's answer:
Progesterone is a natural progestogen secreted by the corpus luteum of the ovary. It has a significant morphological effect on the endometrium stimulated by estrogen in the body and is essential for maintaining pregnancy. Clinically, progesterone is used for conditions such as threatened miscarriage, habitual abortion, and reactive diagnostic tests for amenorrhea or causes of amenorrhea. There are many factors that can induce luteal dysfunction, and patients need to be treated promptly according to their symptoms. It is recommended to seek treatment at a professional hospital for your condition. Pay attention to the development of your condition and avoid indiscriminate treatment. Additionally, focus on self-care, maintain a balanced diet, and keep clean. Best wishes for your recovery!
