      What should adolescent girls do if they don’t menstruate? Follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone secreted by the pituitary gland, and estrogens such as estradiol, estrone, and estriol secreted by the ovary are all important substances in controlling the menstrual cycle. If menstruation does not come on time every month (commonly known as "dry blood tuberculosis", it is also called "dry blood tuberculosis" in medicine). amenorrhea ), it must involve Uterus Developmental issues also involve the functions of the pituitary gland and ovaries. In addition, the following disease Amenorrhea may also be induced:

      1. Pituitary gland lesions, such as pituitary gland dysfunction, pituitary gland tumors, etc.;

      2. Ovarian lesions, such as ovarian cysts, ovarian tumors, ovarian dysplasia, etc.;

      3. Endocrine diseases, such as hyperadrenocorticism; hyperthyroidism, etc.;

      4. Chronic diseases such as anemia , tuberculosis, tumors, cirrhosis, nephritis, diabetes, etc.;

      5. Other factors, such as mental stimulation, tension, anxiety, climate change, etc. People with amenorrhea caused by diseases will have menstruation after being cured. If it is caused by mental factors, if they can mentally comfort themselves, menstruation will sometimes come. However, those caused by ovarian dysplasia are more difficult to deal with.

      There are currently two more effective treatments for amenorrhea caused by ovarian development or dysfunction:

      The first is to artificially use hormonal drugs for artificial cycle treatment. The first step is to take 0.5-1 mg of ethylphenol orally every night for 20 days. The second step is to intramuscularly inject 10 mg of flavonoids every day during the last 6 days of taking ethylphenol. Menstruation will occur within 3-5 days after completing the above treatment. Then, start taking ethylphenol again on the 6th day after the onset of menstruation for the next artificial cycle treatment. Generally, it lasts for 3 consecutive cycles, or more cycles. Driven by the artificial menstrual cycle, menstruation may gradually become normal.

      The second is to use chorionic gonadotropin 1,000 international units, starting on the 10th day of menstruation, and intramuscularly injecting it once every other day for a total of 5 times, which can also promote ovarian function and lead to menstruation.

      Traditional Chinese medicine has done a lot of research on promoting menstruation. According to the pulse condition and clinical manifestations, prescriptions such as Honghua Taoren Decoction, Siwu Decoction, and Bazhen Decoction can be used for treatment.
