Patient's question:
My daughter is almost nineteen years old, and she hasn't had her period yet. I don't know what's wrong, and I'm very worried about it.Doctor's answer:
A 19-year-old girl who has not had her menstrual period is usually due to poor congenital development of the uterus or chromosomal abnormalities. It is recommended to get tested for the six sexual hormones to check the specific values. Plant-based options are relatively safe, and if estrogen levels are low, you can consume some plant-based products.For patients with low estrogen levels, their daily diet and lifestyle also play a very important role. Therefore, it is necessary to start from daily habits. Only in this way can the issue of excessively low estrogen levels in the body be effectively improved.
Here are some suggestions for you:
1. Pay attention to nutritional supplementation and maintain a balanced diet with a reasonable dietary structure.
2. Relax your mind, adjust your mindset, and reduce stress.
3. Maintain a regular lifestyle, avoid staying up late, ensure adequate sleep, and engage in more outdoor activities.
4. Include more foods rich in phytoestrogen in your diet, such as soybeans, broad beans, grains, wheat, black rice, fennel, sunflower seeds, and onions. These foods contain a high amount of phytoestrogen.
