Patient's question:
Medical Description: The patient is 27 years old, married for four years, and has been using no contraception for three years without pregnancy. Tests revealed polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and blocked fallopian tubes. She has been experiencing amenorrhea for three and a half years and does not have periods without medication.History of Treatment and Effects: She has taken traditional Chinese medicine and Western medications such as Dian 35 and Marvelon to regulate her endocrine system, but with no significant results.
Desired Help: She wants to use oral rose essential oil to regulate her endocrine system. After drinking it for one week, she noticed significant effects, but experienced a feeling of fullness in her lower abdomen. Due to her PCOS, where there are many small follicles, she feared that it might stimulate multiple follicles to develop, so she stopped. However, now that she has tried various methods, she wants to restart this approach. Is it feasible? She has consulted doctors, but none of them know what the outcome might be, so she is seeking advice.
Doctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been identified as a clinical syndrome characterized by polycystic ovaries accompanied by anovulation and/or hirsutism with increasing scope in histopathological studies. Many atypical cases have been discovered, such as those without hirsutism, or even with ovulatory function. With the advancement of diagnostic technology, it has been recognized that polycystic ovaries are not a unique disease but rather a clinically heterogeneous syndrome with multiple etiologies. It is recommended that you seek medical attention at a formal infertility hospital as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and develop a targeted treatment plan. This will ensure better and faster treatment for PCOS. Avoid (blind treatment) to prevent missing the optimal treatment window.
