Patient's question:
My daughter sought medical treatment from you in 2009 after being introduced by a classmate due to irregular menstruation. She was suspected of having a tumor in the pituitary gland, but her prolactin and other hormone levels were normal, and all visual field tests were normal. After returning, her menstruation returned to normal. Now she is in her third year of university, and her menstruation has become irregular again. I remember you asked us to have a follow-up check-up at that time, but we did not follow up. Now, I would like to ask if you can have an MRI at a local hospital and then seek your consultation.Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are many reasons that can cause menstrual disorders, common ones include abnormal ovarian function, uterine diseases, cavity diseases, endocrine dysfunction, gynecological inflammation, emotional fluctuations, drug effects, environmental changes, overexertion, and excessive mental stress, etc. It is recommended that you first rule out external factors affecting your menstrual cycle, and then wait for a while to see if the condition improves. In daily life, maintain a regular routine, pay attention to rest, avoid overexertion, especially during your period, to prevent cold and dampness. Avoid extreme dieting and pay attention to your dietary structure. Consume more lean meat, grains, dark green leafy vegetables, and calcium-rich foods. Avoid excessive consumption of cold and raw foods. Maintain a cheerful mood. Strengthen exercise to improve your physical fitness. If the symptoms do not improve, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a reexamination of your endocrine hormones!
