How to regulate and normalize delayed menstruation during adolescence?
Adolescent girls have not yet established a regular menstrual cycle, and whether it occurs earlier or later, it is considered normal. This is because the regulation of the menstrual cycle is very complex, involving the interdependence and mutual restraint of the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and ovaries. Additionally, it is also influenced by the cerebral cortex, external environment, psychological factors, and bodily fluids. During adolescence, girls have not yet adjusted these aspects, so a normal menstrual cycle is not established. Menstrual irregularities at this stage are normal, and as long as there are no organic lesions, it generally does not pose a problem. If family members are concerned, a systematic examination at the hospital can be conducted. They may also visit the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) department at a hospital for pulse diagnosis by a TCM practitioner to see if conditioning is needed, but it is best to follow the doctor's advice specifically.
What does normal vaginal discharge look like during puberty?
Normal vaginal discharge during adolescence is a mixture of vaginal mucosal exudate, cervical canal secretion, and endometrial gland secretion. Its formation is mainly related to the action of estrogen. Normal vaginal discharge is white, transparent, thin or egg white-like, highly viscous, odorless, and generally in small amounts. If inflammation occurs in the female reproductive tract, especially vaginitis and cervicitis, or in cases of cancer, the amount of discharge significantly increases, and its characteristics change. It is crucial to actively seek medical attention in such cases. Additionally, a type of discharge that appears similar to normal but is significantly more abundant and viscous should prompt consideration of chronic cervicitis, ovarian dysfunction, vaginal gland diseases, or highly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Other types of discharge, such as frothy, curd-like, fishy, purulent, bloody, or watery discharges, also require active hospital visits for systematic examination, as these are pathological discharges. It is advisable to consult a doctor at a hospital for specific guidance.
