What to do about amenorrhea and how to regulate it?
Amenorrhea is a common gynecological disease, and there are many causes that can lead to amenorrhea. Hormonal tests and ultrasound examinations can be conducted to identify the causes, and treatment can be carried out accordingly. There are many reasons for amenorrhea among women, such as poor lifestyle habits, excessive dieting, malnutrition, deficiency of kidney qi, lack of essence and blood, etc. Amenorrhea can easily cause disorders in the ovulation cycle, and in severe cases, it may lead to non-proliferative changes in the endometrium and lack of follicular development, ultimately leading to female infertility. It is suggested to drink some Chinese herbal medicine to regulate the condition of amenorrhea.
Will menstruation ahead of schedule lead to infertility?
Menstruation occurring earlier than expected might lead to infertility. Generally, if a woman's period occurs every 20 days or so, it may be indicative of a shortened luteal phase, which can impact pregnancy. If menstruation consistently occurs earlier, it can affect ovulation and the development of the endometrium, which is disadvantageous for conception. If the advance in timing is significant, it usually suggests poor ovarian function, which can impact the development of follicles and the endometrium, thereby affecting pregnancy. If the cycle is very regular and involves normal follicles, the possibility of pregnancy cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to maintain a good mood and ensure adequate rest.
What should I do if I catch a cold while preparing for pregnancy?
During the pre-pregnancy period, one should not indiscriminately take medications. If the symptoms of a cold are mild, try not to use medication and drink more warm water while resting. If the cold symptoms are severe, medications should be taken under the guidance of a doctor. A cold during the pre-pregnancy period could possibly be caused by exposure to cold due to very cold weather, wearing too little clothing, or eating too many cold and raw foods. During pre-pregnancy, it is crucial to keep warm to prevent diseases, frequently ventilate by opening windows, and wear a mask outdoors depending on the weather conditions.
What are the symptoms of cervical cancer?
The most common symptom of cervical cancer is contact bleeding, which can manifest as bloody vaginal discharge and bleeding after sexual intercourse, as well as intermittent vaginal bleeding outside of menstrual periods. Additionally, it can present with malignant vaginal discharge, increased vaginal secretion accompanied by an unpleasant odor or foul smell, and sometimes purulent discharge. If the cervical cancer tumor spreads to adjacent organs, such as the bladder or kidneys, symptoms may include frequent urination, urinary urgency, back pain, and swelling of the lower limbs. In advanced stages, symptoms can also include anemia, fever, and weight loss.
What is the cause of breast pain before menstruation?
If breast pain occurs before menstruation, it is likely due to stagnation of liver qi, caused by discomfort of liver qi. Initially, one can use some traditional Chinese medicines that soothe the liver and regulate qi for treatment, which are very helpful in alleviating these symptoms. It is also important to avoid frequent anger, anxiety, and excessive heat, as these can affect menstruation and lead to breast pain during this period. If symptoms of premenstrual breast pain recur, it is also necessary to visit a hospital for a detailed examination, and an ultrasound of the breast can be performed to check for any breast lumps or related symptoms.
How many days before menstruation does breast pain occur?
The duration of breast pain before menstruation varies depending on an individual's constitution. Typically, breast pain is a sign that menstruation is approaching, and the symptoms will gradually disappear after the onset of menstruation. If the symptoms are mild, there is no need for treatment. It is important to rest adequately and avoid overexertion. Applying a warm towel to the breasts can help alleviate the pain. Additionally, it is important to maintain a good mood and attitude during menstruation and when experiencing breast pain, and avoid becoming angry or anxious.
Does hemorrhoids affect natural childbirth?
Women with hemorrhoids during pregnancy can affect childbirth. It is recommended to first treat the hemorrhoids. If the condition of the hemorrhoids is severe, it is also not suitable to treat during pregnancy. In such cases, methods like cesarean section may be adopted for childbirth. Additionally, some topical ointments can be used to locally treat hemorrhoids, which are effective in relieving symptoms such as swelling, pain, and bleeding caused by hemorrhoids. During pregnancy and while suffering from hemorrhoids, spicy foods should be avoided. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a doctor based on specific conditions.)
What tests are required for amenorrhea?
Amenorrhea is one of the most common gynecological diseases, and it usually requires an ultrasound and a sex hormone panel test. Testing the sex hormone panel should be done by drawing blood on an empty stomach in the morning, three to five days after the onset of menstruation, for more accurate results. After identifying the cause, treatment should be targeted accordingly. There are many reasons for amenorrhea in women, such as poor lifestyle habits, excessive fasting for weight loss, malnutrition, and kidney deficiency, all of which can cause this condition. Amenorrhea can lead to disturbances in the ovulation cycle and, in severe cases, prevent the development of follicles, causing infertility in women.
What are the precautions for infertility?
For women with infertility, it is first necessary to determine the survival rate of the man's sperm by conducting a sperm test. Additionally, women need to undergo routine examinations and follicle checks. If there are no issues found, a fallopian tube examination should be done for the woman. In daily life, it is important to ensure adequate sleep and to pay attention to rest and avoid alcohol and tobacco. Furthermore, it is crucial to eliminate tension, adjust one’s mindset, and adopt a positive attitude. Bad habits such as staying up late and pulling all-nighters need to be changed.
What is the cause of having many blood clots during painful menstruation?
During the menstrual period, the appearance of dysmenorrhea and more blood clots is often due to blood stasis within the body. Some Chinese patent medicines that invigorate the blood and dispel stasis can be used for conditioning. Additionally, some Chinese medicinal ingredients can be used for treatment. It is appropriate to consume some goji berries and longan, which have the effects of invigorating blood, dispelling stasis, and promoting blood circulation. These can greatly help in reducing excessive menstrual blood clots. Normally, drink more water and pay more attention to exercising. Avoid sexual intercourse during the menstrual period. (Specific medications should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
