Patient's question:
He arrived on the 7th, and didn't come until the 12th of this month. Is this normal? And will ovulation still occur this month under such circumstances?Medical history and treatment effectiveness: Used several sets of traditional Chinese medicine.
What help is desired: Want to know if this falls under anovulatory menstruation.
Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstrual cycle makes it difficult to accurately determine the time of ovulation. Generally, a transvaginal ultrasound is performed on the 12th day after the start of menstruation to assess the development of follicles. If no follicles are observed, a follow-up ultrasound is conducted after one week. If follicles are detected, the timing for the second ultrasound is determined based on their size.If polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is suspected, a blood test for six hormones combined with an ultrasound observation of follicle count is necessary for diagnosis. If confirmed, hormone cycle therapy for three to six months may be required to restore natural ovulation.
After intrauterine device (IUD) insertion, some individuals may experience cycle irregularities, while others may temporarily experience infertility. This can only be determined after observation.
