Causes and treatments for amenorrhea

Causes and treatments for amenorrhea:

There are many reasons for amenorrhea, such as excessive dieting, excessive exercise, insufficient qi and blood, ovarian disease, drug effects, etc. It needs to be judged in combination with other symptoms and related examinations. If amenorrhea lasts for more than 6 months, it is best to go to the hospital for examination to determine whether there are endocrine abnormalities, ovarian lesions, pituitary lesions and other diseases, and then take targeted treatment.

1. Causes of amenorrhea. Excessive dieting, excessive exercise, extreme cold, etc. can all lead to amenorrhea. Excessive dieting can lead to hormonal disorders in the body, which can lead to menstrual disorders or even amenorrhea. Continuous strenuous exercise can lead to excessive mental tension, causing the body's stress response, which can also lead to amenorrhea. Long-term use of contraceptives, antipsychotics or antihypertensive drugs may also cause amenorrhea. You must stop taking the drugs in time and take corresponding adjustments. Many diseases can also lead to amenorrhea, such as premature ovarian failure, polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic tumors, pituitary tumors, etc.

2. Treatment methods for amenorrhea. If it is caused by malnutrition or insufficient qi and blood, it is necessary to adjust the diet structure in time. Usually, eat more longan, yam, lotus seeds, peanuts, red beans, beef, mutton and other foods, and you can use astragalus, angelica, wolfberry and other foods to soak in water for drinking. If it is caused by a hypothalamic tumor, pituitary tumor or ovarian tumor, surgery should be performed to completely remove the tumor. In order to correct endocrine disorders, patients can also receive hormone therapy, usually combined with estrogen and progesterone. If combined with insulin resistance, insulin sensitizers are also needed.

The above are the common causes and treatment methods of amenorrhea. In order to determine the specific cause, detailed examinations are required, such as ultrasound examination, hormone level measurement, hysteroscopy, etc., and treatment should be received in time after diagnosis. During the treatment process, patients must maintain regular work and rest, avoid overwork, strengthen nutrition supply, and reduce heavy physical labor.
