Patient's question:
Doctor, hello! I have irregular menstruation, with periods occurring every three or two months, and the flow is light. Between the last period and the next, there is a period where the vagina discharges dark brown, viscous material, which lasts for about a week. After a week, it returns to normal, turning into white discharge, which is quite normal. I'm quite worried that it might be some kind of inflammation. Is this viscous material menstrual discharge?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of amenorrhea, such as: endocrine disorders, uterine diseases, gynecological inflammation, emotional fluctuations, medication effects, environmental changes, overexertion, and excessive mental stress, etc. Your condition is likely amenorrhea caused by endocrine issues. It is recommended that you visit a hospital promptly for relevant examinations and follow medical advice after diagnosis.The occurrence of amenorrhea not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
