Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I had my period on September 27th, then on October 17th, October 31st, and then again on November 16th. Moreover, the amount of blood flow was less than usual when I had my period before. Why did these three periods come every half a month? Could an ovarian cyst cause such regular menstrual irregularities? If I need an ultrasound, can I go now or should I wait until the bleeding stops?Doctor's answer:
The causes of irregular menstruation include gynecological inflammation, endocrine disorders, etc.But considering your age, it is generally considered to be due to endocrine disorders (the endocrine system can become imbalanced due to factors like the environment, mood, etc.). It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a sex hormone test. It is also advisable to undergo a color Doppler examination of the uterus and its appendages. Based on the test results, you can then undergo regulation. Additionally, it is important to maintain adequate sleep, rest, and engage in moderate exercise while keeping a calm and cheerful mindset. You can also consume more soy products and honey. Drinking soy milk is beneficial for women's health as it contains isoflavones, which act like estrogen and are very helpful for regulating the body.
