How is infertility treated?
For the treatment of infertility, it is necessary to address the specific causes of infertility. For instance, infertility caused by partial fallopian tube blockage can be treated conservatively, such as using traditional Chinese medicine enemas and external applications. In cases of severe fallopian tube blockage or blockage at the isthmic part, surgery or in vitro fertilization may be required. Additionally, some women may suffer from undeveloped follicles or anovulation, which necessitates the use of Chinese or Western medicine to stimulate follicle development and ovulation. Good follicle development and ovulation are essential for conception. Furthermore, infertility can also be due to male factors, such as sperm issues, which would require the male partner to undergo treatment at a urology clinic to improve sperm quality before conception can occur.
How is female infertility investigated?
There are many tests to be done for female infertility. For example, during menstruation, a fasting blood test can be done to check for six sex hormones, including follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone. Between days 3-7 after menstruation ends, a fallopian tube hydrotubation and imaging can be performed, but intercourse must be avoided and there should be no gynecological inflammation to proceed with this examination. Additionally, routine vaginal secretion and mycoplasma infection tests can be conducted to check for any related issues. Moreover, around the tenth day of the menstrual cycle, a follicle monitoring ultrasound can be done to observe if there are dominant follicles and whether ovulation occurs. The male partner should also undergo some related tests. In summary, different tests can be conducted at different times for female infertility.
How to treat breast hyperplasia?
For breast hyperplasia, oral medication can be taken, such as some traditional Chinese medicine formulations that also have effects like activating blood circulation to remove blood stasis, softening lumps, and dispersing nodules, such as Ruhe Sanjie tablets. One can also use traditional Chinese medicine orally to regulate the condition, which generally includes herbs that soothe the liver and relieve depression, soften lumps and disperse nodules, or strengthen the spleen. Moreover, for breast hyperplasia, it is recommended to maintain a good mood and eat fewer soy products, as there is a certain relationship between breast hyperplasia and estrogen, and soy products may contain estrogen, such as soybeans. It is also crucial to maintain a positive mindset. Breast hyperplasia, in many cases, might not require treatment; it is suggested to have a follow-up every 3 to 6 months. If accompanied by severe breast pain, oral medication can be taken for adjustment. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor)
What are the symptoms of functional uterine bleeding?
Functional uterine bleeding is primarily characterized by severe disruptions in menstrual cycle, amount, and duration. The disruptions in menstrual cycles typically manifest as an early onset of menstruation. The amount of menstruation is typically characterized as excessive, and the duration tends to be prolonged. Some women experience heavy bleeding or incomplete clearing, where they may remain unclean for half a month or even one or two months. This condition is primarily seen in adolescent girls and women going through menopause. Adolescent girls with uterine bleeding may experience anemia, and it could lead to infertility later on. Menopausal uterine bleeding may be accompanied by severe anemia, requiring some to be hospitalized for blood transfusions. Moreover, it is essential to perform an ultrasound if the uterine endometrium is thick, to rule out endometrial pathology.
