Patient's question:
Patient Age: 27Started not using contraception since October and has not been pregnant yet. Her menstrual cycle had always been delayed, with periods occurring every 2-3 months. Taking Chinese medicine didn’t help. The last time she had her period was after taking progesterone on November 8, and then she took a prescription from an old Chinese medicine practitioner, which she only took for 14 doses. This time, her period arrived on December 17, which was only 9 days later than the last time. During this period, basal body temperature measurements showed biphasic patterns, confirming ovulation but not pregnancy. She wants to ask the expert, what should she do? Since she ovulated this time but still didn’t get pregnant, what tests should she undergo? Also, her period this month was basically within the normal date, and next month she expects it to be the same.
