Can amenorrhea be cured?

There are currently three main methods for treating female amenorrhea. If amenorrhea is caused by lifestyle problems and non-infection, it can be treated through diet therapy. If amenorrhea is caused by disease, it must be curbed through drug treatment. In the most serious cases, surgery must be taken. In the later stages, you must pay more attention to yourself and improve your ability to protect yourself. Here I will introduce to you the current methods of treating amenorrhea.

1. Treat the organic lesions that cause amenorrhea

For patients with intrauterine adhesions, the uterine cavity can be dilated, adhesions can be separated, an intrauterine contraceptive device can be placed to prevent re-adhesion, and estrogen and progesterone can be used to promote endometrial hyperplasia and exfoliation. For ovarian or pituitary tumors, surgical treatment can be performed after diagnosis. For patients with genital tuberculosis, anti-tuberculosis treatment is given.

2. Estrogen and progesterone replacement therapy

For patients with congenital ovarian hypoplasia, or ovarian failure caused by ovarian function suppression or destruction, exogenous ovarian hormone replacement therapy can be used. These patients lack normal follicles and oocytes and do not secrete sex hormones. If estrogen or estrogen and progesterone are given for artificial cycle therapy, the physiological and psychological state of estrogen deficiency can be corrected, the development of reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics can be promoted to a certain extent, sexual life can be improved, and periodic withdrawal bleeding similar to menstruation can be caused.

3. Induce ovulation

For patients who desire fertility and have not lost ovarian function, hormones or analogs can be used to induce ovulation:

① For those with pituitary insufficiency, follicle-stimulating hormone (hMG) extracted from the urine of postmenopausal women can be used to promote follicle development and estrogen secretion, and combined with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for treatment, the ovulation success rate is high.

② For those with normal pituitary and ovarian function but insufficient or uncoordinated hypothalamic function, clopidogrel can be used to correct the function of the hypothalamic pituitary-ovarian axis and induce ovulation.

③ For amenorrhea caused by endogenous LHRH deficiency, the pulsed micro-LHRH injection method to induce ovulation has a good effect.

④ For patients with hyperprolactinemia, bromocriptine can inhibit the effect of prolactin, restore the secretion of gonadotropin, and thus induce ovulation.

There are many factors that cause amenorrhea in women, and it is one of the diseases that must be identified before treatment. The complexity of treatment makes it very difficult to cure, and there are only three treatment methods, so patients must take more auxiliary measures and methods during the treatment process to treat the disease as soon as possible.
