Can amenorrhea be cured?

Due to family economic and psychological reasons, many patients with amenorrhea are very resistant to the treatment of their own amenorrhea. Even many amenorrhea patients have given up the treatment of their own amenorrhea. Can amenorrhea be cured? In fact, it mainly depends on the treatment of amenorrhea. There are many treatments for amenorrhea, and female patients with amenorrhea must do well. Let's take a look at the treatment methods for amenorrhea.

Treatments for amenorrhea

1. Uterine amenorrhea: There is no cure for congenital absence of uterus or complete damage of endometrium. Pseudo-amenorrhea caused by vaginal or hymenal deformity can be cleared by surgery to allow menstrual blood to be discharged smoothly. Patients with intrauterine adhesions should have their uterine cavity explored and separation surgery performed depending on the adhesion situation. After surgery, an intrauterine contraceptive device should be placed for several months to prevent re-adhesion.

2. Ovarian amenorrhea: Due to the low function of the ovaries themselves, sex hormone replacement therapy can only be used. Generally, estrogen and progesterone are combined for cyclical administration to simulate normal menstruation and create an artificial cycle. This can make girls with this type of amenorrhea have cyclical menstruation similar to normal girls, so as to maintain the psychological state of normal women. More importantly, sex hormone replacement therapy can prevent their reproductive tract atrophy and dysplasia, prevent osteoporosis, and promote the development of sexual characteristics.

Most cases of ovarian amenorrhea are lifelong infertility because no follicles develop in the ovaries. This is unless artificial fertility technology is used with eggs donated by others. Occasionally, there are reports of premature ovarian failure or ovarian insensitivity syndrome because there are still a small number of undeveloped follicles in the ovaries. Ovulation and pregnancy are occasionally reported after stimulation, but this is very rare. Those with hypogonadism who have a Y sex chromosome should have their gonads removed and then receive sex hormone supplementation treatment.

3. Pituitary amenorrhea: For pituitary amenorrhea, gonadotropin HMG (human menopausal gonadotropin) should be the best choice, and it can achieve a fairly high ovulation rate and pregnancy rate. Because it is expensive and requires daily injections and strict monitoring procedures, it is only suitable for married women who want to have children. For unmarried women or those who do not want to have children, the main treatment principle for pituitary amenorrhea is still hormone replacement therapy. The method is the same as that for ovarian amenorrhea.

4. Hypothalamic amenorrhea: This is the most complicated type of amenorrhea, but generally speaking, it has the best prognosis. In addition to treating the corresponding primary cause, the following principles are adopted according to the patient's estrogen level and whether there is a desire to have children.

Although amenorrhea is a stubborn disease, it can be completely cured as long as the patient chooses a professional hospital and receives timely treatment. I believe that everyone has already understood the above treatment methods for amenorrhea. It is recommended that patients with amenorrhea choose a good treatment method for amenorrhea according to their own symptoms, and scientifically cure it to avoid recurrence.
