Doctor's answer:
Hello, you are experiencing severe menstrual irregularities, which are likely caused by endocrine disorders. It is essential to identify the specific cause for proper regulation and treatment. The menstrual interval is prolonged, and the menstrual cycle is significantly abnormal. This could be related to gynecological issues or endocrine disorders. After a definitive diagnosis, treatment can be more effective. Avoid using medication blindly; it is still necessary to undergo a six-item sex hormone test to determine if it is caused by endocrine disorders.
