Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation:
Duration of This Onset and Persistence: Is the ovulation period also the period of menstruation cessation when the menstrual cycle is 40-50 days?
Current General Condition:

Doctor's answer:

1. Developmental Status. Tall stature and underdeveloped secondary sexual characteristics may indicate central nervous system-related sexual dysfunction. Excessive body hair growth could be due to excessive androgen secretion by the ovaries or adrenal glands. Milk discharge from the nipples may suggest high prolactin levels in the blood.
2. Menstrual Status. Irregular menstruation and amenorrhea are symptoms of anovulation.
3. Lower back pain and lower abdominal pain. Mild lower back pain and lower abdominal pain may occur during ovulation, but the presence of these symptoms does not necessarily confirm ovulation, as some gynecological conditions can also cause lower back and abdominal pain.
4. Light vaginal bleeding. A small number of people may experience light vaginal bleeding between periods, less than the amount of a normal menstrual period. This is known as "ovulatory bleeding" and requires timely treatment.
5. Breast tenderness. Increased estrogen and progesterone levels during ovulation can easily cause breast tenderness.
6. Increased vaginal discharge. This is the most obvious symptom of ovulation. Most people experience a significant increase in vaginal discharge during ovulation, which becomes clear and viscous like egg white, stretchable into strands, without discomfort such as vaginal itching or odor.
