Generally, amenorrhea is not greatly related to the kidneys. The most typical clinical presentation of amenorrhea is the absence or cessation of menstrual periods. There are many reasons that can cause amenorrhea, such as being chilled, fatigue, emotions, bacterial infections, medications, and diseases that lead to hormonal imbalances in the body.

If amenorrhea occurs, it can be managed through dietary adjustments. Eating a balanced diet, without being picky or selective, consciously increasing intake of high-protein and high-calorie foods can be beneficial for hormone production and conversion, maintaining normal menstruation. Additionally, it is important to keep a cheerful mood to avoid causing disruptions in qi and blood. If dietary adjustments are insufficient, it is necessary to visit a hospital to check the underlying causes.

How to regulate amenorrhea for three months?

It has been three months since the last menstrual period, and if pregnancy has been definitively ruled out, then there must be a serious endocrine issue. It is necessary to identify the cause before treatment can be administered. Not all cases of amenorrhea are treated with the same medication. First, an ultrasound examination should be performed to assess the condition of the pelvic cavity and the uterine cavity, including the thickness of the endometrium and the volume of the uterus. Then, after inducing menstruation or if the endometrium is particularly thin, a blood test should be performed to check levels of thyroid hormones, sex hormones, etc. If there is an issue with weight gain, tests for insulin and blood sugar levels should also be conducted, and medication should be chosen based on the results of these tests.

Can you get pregnant after menopause?

If menstruation has already ceased, it is generally not possible to become pregnant. This is because after menopause, ovarian function has essentially declined, and there is no regular secretion of estrogen and progesterone. Thus, there is no development and presence of mature follicles, making pregnancy highly unlikely. Currently, symptoms can only be addressed by utilizing assisted reproductive technologies. If menstruation ceases before the typical age of menopause, early ovarian failure should be considered, and appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic measures should be taken.

What are the symptoms of amenorrhea?

The most typical clinical presentation of amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation and cessation of menstrual periods. There are many causes of amenorrhea, such as exposure to cold, fatigue, medications, diseases, bacterial infections, and poor emotional states, all of which can lead to hormonal imbalances and result in amenorrhea. Additionally, amenorrhea may occur after sustained physical activity, which is related to the individual's psychological state, stress response level, and a decline in physical condition. If there is a weight loss of 10%-15%, or a 30% decrease in physical condition, amenorrhea may occur. If amenorrhea occurs, dietary adjustments can be made, such as avoiding picky and partial eating, avoiding intense exercise, and consciously increasing the intake of high-protein, high-calorie foods. This is beneficial for the production and transformation of hormones and maintaining normal menstruation. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention should be sought promptly.
