Irregular menstruation, see endocrinology or gynecology?

Patient's question:

Here are two visits, sometimes coming once every two months. Weight also increases rapidly. I feel it might be related to endocrine factors or the cause. Please ask if you need to see a gynecology department or an endocrinology department when checking at the hospital? What tests need to be done?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this menstrual disorder can be treated by visiting the gynecology and traditional Chinese medicine departments for diagnosis and treatment. There are various factors or causes of menstruation, and endocrine is one of them. An endocrine check-up is sufficient.
Advice: You should primarily visit the gynecology and traditional Chinese medicine departments. Medication does not cause weight gain, and some blood-activating and qi-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine do not have a fattening effect. There are many triggers for gynecological endocrine disorders, and patients need timely symptomatic treatment. It is recommended to seek treatment at a formal hospital. Pay attention to the progression of your condition and avoid indiscriminate treatment. Additionally, maintain good lifestyle habits and personal hygiene. Best wishes for your recovery!
