Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I was in a car accident about a year ago. At the time of the accident, I was on my menstrual period. After the accident, I fainted for about half an hour and was hospitalized for 10 days. Since then, my period hasn't come, and I can only induce it by taking Angelica Sinensis Tablets. If I don't take them, it doesn't come. I've taken them four times, and I've also used important regulation for two months, but it hasn't worked. The hormone level test at the hospital was normal, but my uterus is slightly smaller. Moreover, even when my period comes with the help of medication, it only lasts for two or three days.Duration of the current illness: One year
Current general condition: It's been almost a month since I last took hormones, and I've gained a lot of weight because I love to eat.
Doctor's answer:
, Amenorrhea is primarily caused by dysfunction of the hypothalamus-pituitary axis. Although the pathogenesis is similar, the primary causes are not uniform, and therefore treatment must be tailored to different situations. It is recommended to enhance nutrition, increase body fat, exercise, improve living environment, relax mood, and apply estrogen-progestogen for artificial cycle therapy or use gonadotropin therapy, etc. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation treatment can also be used, which is beneficial for improving physical condition and consolidating therapeutic effects.
