Patient's question:
I am YJ from December 4th. On the 19th, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound, but BC said there were no follicles and the endometrium was 6mm. I had been using PL test strips at home until the past two days when I got a very faint positive result, thinking ovulation was about to happen. However, the ultrasound at the hospital showed no follicles. I had always suspected I didn't ovulate, but I thought it would be different this month. If I really don't ovulate, what should I eat? And what should I eat if the endometrium is thin?First follow-up question: When should I go for a check-up?
Second follow-up question: Isn't it checked on the 3rd day of the menstrual cycle?
Doctor's answer:
??????Endometrial atrophy is commonly caused by endocrine issues, such as abnormal hormone secretion or anovulation. It can also be due to intrinsic factors of the endometrium, such as endometrial tuberculosis leading to endometrial lesions or conditions like artificial abortion and curettage, which can result in thinning of the endometrium. Additionally, tumors in the uterus and certain ovaries can cause changes in menstruation. Due to the complexity of the causes, it is recommended that you visit a hospital for examination to confirm the underlying reason and receive targeted treatment. Hormone therapy is generally effective, and now there are natural hormones that will not affect the fetus.
