Patient's question:
How to regulate insufficient corpus luteum with traditional Chinese medicine? Which traditional Chinese medicine herbs are used to regulate insufficient corpus luteum? The luteal phase days do not meet the standard, but the menstrual cycle is normal. I have monitored the follicles sometimes they keep growing but do not ovulate, and sometimes they shrink before growing significantly.Doctor's answer:
Hello: In your case, it is advisable to consider luteal phase deficiency. Luteal phase deficiency can easily lead to poor follicular development, incomplete luteal formation, and an imbalance in the ratio of estrogen and progesterone secreted by the corpus luteum itself. Infertility caused by luteal phase insufficiency is not uncommon, accounting for approximately 3% to 10% of all infertility cases. It is recommended that you seek detailed examination at a formal specialized hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Avoid taking medication blindly. Wish you health!
