Patient's question:
When menstruation is irregular, it is delayed, and there is a two-month period of absence. Physical fatigue, even loud speaking feels exhausting. Severe hair loss, fingernails barely show the moon crescent, and ankles are swollen.Doctor's answer:
This time cannot be determined; it varies from person to person, and also depends on the different conditions of the illness. Irregular menstruation is just a symptom. The treatment should first identify the root cause, and include an electrochemical luminescence hormone test (preferably on days 3-5 of the menstrual period) and a four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound of the vagina. It is crucial not to use medication blindly, as menstrual regulation drugs are hormone-based, which can affect various aspects of the body and disrupt the endocrine system if the cause has not been identified. If there is amenorrhea or severe endocrine disorder, it may be necessary to consider a pituitary stimulation test.
