What methods are used to treat irregular menstruation?

Patient's question:

It's been several months since your last menstrual period.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, irregular menstruation is just a symptom. There are many specific causes of menstrual abnormalities, such as: endocrine disorders, uterine diseases, gynecological inflammation, ovarian lesions, emotional fluctuations, drug effects, environmental changes, overexertion, and excessive mental stress, etc. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to identify the cause and follow medical advice for early, targeted treatment. If menstruation has stopped for three months, it is considered amenorrhea. There are many causes of amenorrhea: if it occurs due to reproductive organs not yet maturing or incomplete ovarian function, this is a normal physiological phenomenon. However, amenorrhea can also be caused by hypothalamic dysfunction due to environmental changes, emotional fluctuations, weight changes, and tension or overexertion. Additionally, some conditions can also lead to amenorrhea, such as: polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid function abnormalities, tuberculosis bacteria, severe anemia, malnutrition, etc.
Guidance:
It is recommended to have a six-hormone test at the hospital. If diagnosed, hormone therapy or traditional Chinese medicine regulation would be advisable.
