Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Is having a period every 20 days a sign of menopause?Doctor's answer:
Menopause can result in irregular menstruation, but it is recommended to visit a hospital for relevant examinations, such as an ultrasound to assess the thickness of the endometrium and bleeding conditions, as well as to check for anemia. These findings are crucial for determining the next steps in treatment.The onset of menopausal syndrome not only affects the patient's quality of life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is advisable to undergo a vaginal discharge examination at the gynecology department of the hospital. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of water and maintain good personal hygiene.
