Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My periods have been delayed. In the past few years, they have been irregular and fluctuating for four to five days. I have tried all the home remedies but nothing worked. I am very concerned.
Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through your history and understood your concern.
Menstrual irregularities could be due to hormonal imbalances caused by PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)/PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome). PCOS/PMOS is an endocrine disorder in which a hormonal imbalance occurs due to cysts in the ovary. There may also be facial hair growth and weight gain.
As it is a lifestyle disease, I suggest you change your lifestyle, eat a high-protein diet with lots of vegetables and fruits, and exercise regularly. Get your hemoglobin, HbA1c (hemoglobin A1c), and TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) levels checked. I also suggest you take Progesterone (a steroid hormone) for withdrawal bleeding.
Kindly consult a specialist, talk with them, and take medicines with their consent.
I hope this has helped you.
Thanks and regards.
