What's wrong if your period suddenly stops coming? You're not pregnant.

Patient's question:

I am a 28-year-old woman. My last menstrual period was on October 7th, and it hasn't come back yet. My menstrual cycles have always been very regular this year, with each cycle lasting 30–33 days, but this time, for some reason? My medical history is as follows: From August 2002 to December 2003, for a period of one and a half years, I took a long-term birth control pill called Yoiketing. Starting in May 2004, because my period didn't come for three months after stopping the pill, I underwent artificial cycle therapy. The treatment lasted for three months, during which I took Premarin artificial estrogen tablets and Medroxyprogesterone. Although I did get my period, the bleeding was very light.

Doctor's answer:

There are many causes of menstrual disorders, such as: common ones include abnormal ovarian function, uterine diseases, cavity diseases, endocrine dysfunction, gynecological inflammation, emotional fluctuations, drug effects, environmental changes, overexertion, and excessive mental stress, etc. It is recommended that you first rule out external factors affecting your menstrual cycle, and then wait for a while to see if the condition improves. In daily life, maintain a regular routine, pay attention to rest, avoid overexertion, and especially avoid exposure to cold and dampness during your period. Avoid extreme dieting, smoking, and limit alcohol consumption. Pay attention to your dietary structure, consume more lean meat, grains, dark green leafy vegetables, and calcium-rich foods, but avoid overeating cold and raw foods. Maintain a calm mood, strengthen exercise, and improve your physical fitness. If the symptoms do not improve, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly to identify the underlying cause and follow the doctor's advice for early, targeted treatment.
