What is amenorrhea?

In clinical practice, amenorrhea is an external manifestation caused by pathological and physiological changes in women's bodies, resulting from various diseases. Generally, the most typical symptom of amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation or the cessation of periods. There are many causes of amenorrhea, which may include exposure to cold, fatigue, emotional stress, bacterial infections, and disruptions in hormone secretion caused by medications or diseases. If amenorrhea occurs, it can be managed through diet by avoiding picky and unbalanced eating, and consciously increasing the intake of high-protein and high-calorie foods, which helps in hormone production and conversion, maintaining normal menstruation. Additionally, if dietary adjustments prove ineffective, it is important to seek prompt medical examination and treatment at a hospital.

What should I do if my period has been absent for three months?

If a woman does not menstruate for three months, medically this is called amenorrhea. If she is relatively young, it is essential to visit a hospital for relevant examinations. Generally, an ultrasound is conducted first to check the thickness of the endometrial lining and to assess if there are any organic diseases affecting the uterus or ovaries. If the endometrium appears thin and there are no organic diseases, further examinations should include tests for six sex hormones, which are indicators of ovarian function. If the results suggest premature ovarian failure or some endocrine disorders, treatment can be tailored according to these findings. Moreover, if the woman has reached menopausal age and indeed has not menstruated for three months, this condition is considered amenorrhea, which might be physiological. Hence, if an older woman experiences amenorrhea, it is likely true menopausal amenorrhea. Additionally, if a woman who normally has regular menstrual cycles does not menstruate for three months, pregnancy cannot be ruled out, and it is crucial to conduct relevant tests for early pregnancy.

How to regulate amenorrhea for one year?

If a woman under 40 experiences amenorrhea for a year, it is advisable to check the six sex hormones.

However, menopause before 40 is called premature ovarian failure, and hormone replacement therapy is needed. This treatment can delay aging in women and improve post-menopausal symptoms.
