Patient's question:
The last menstrual period was on April 27, and now my legs are delayed by more than a month, accompanied by mild left lower abdominal pain. Yesterday, I went to the hospital for a urinalysis, which was negative. The doctor said it was amenorrhea and prescribed some medication to regulate my period. However, I want to wait a few more days to see what happens. Can you explain what this could be?Doctor's answer:
Due to the low function of the ovaries, only sex hormone supplementation therapy can be used. Generally, estrogen and progesterone are given in a combined cyclic manner to simulate normal menstruation and create an artificial cycle. This allows girls with this type of amenorrhea to have menstrual cycles similar to those of normal girls, thereby maintaining a normal psychological state.
