Why do you experience symptoms of amenorrhea at such a young age? Why do I see signs of amenorrhea when I'm about to get pregnant? Perhaps, in this modern tense life, some women already have amenorrhea symptoms during their childbearing age. So, what are these amenorrhea symptoms?

Why does amenorrhea occur
1. Disease
Mainly including consumptive diseases such as severe tuberculosis, severe anemia, malnutrition, and unique endocrine diseases such as "obesity, reproductive dysfunction, and malnutrition"; The impact of some endocrine disorders in the body, such as adrenal gland, thyroid gland, pancreas and other functional disorders. The impact of these reasons may prevent menstruation.
2. Nervous
Female amenorrhea caused by psychological factors is most easily overlooked by people. Medical research shows that women's menstruation is closely related to the nervous and endocrine systems. The fiercely competitive environment and complex interpersonal relationships put the brain and nervous system in a highly tense state. Mental tension and emotional fluctuations affect the functioning of the nervous system, leading to amenorrhea.
3. Flow of people
Some unmarried girls who become pregnant before marriage or newly married women who are pregnant for the first time often undergo abortion due to reasons such as being unable to get married or needing to study or further their education. After surgery, some people find that their menstrual cycle gradually decreases, even to the point of amenorrhea, sometimes accompanied by periodic lower abdominal pain.
This is due to improper curettage surgery damaging the cervix or the basement membrane of the endometrium, causing adhesions to the cervix or partial adhesions to the uterine wall, leading to amenorrhea. In this way, even if there are periodic changes in the endometrium, the menstrual blood cannot flow out and is retained in the uterine cavity, forming periodic lower abdominal pain.
In clinical practice, it is called secondary amenorrhea. For mild cervical adhesions, probes can be used to separate them, while for severe cervical or uterine adhesions, surgical separation is required. To prevent further adhesion, an intrauterine device can be inserted after surgery. Treating excessive atrophy of the endometrium with artificial cycles for six months can restore fertility, but often leads to miscarriage, premature birth, and other complications after pregnancy.
What to do with amenorrhea
Amenorrhea can be classified into two types: primary and secondary. Primary refers to women over the age of 18 who have not yet menstruated, while secondary refers to those who have had a normal menstrual cycle but have stopped menstruating for more than 3 months.
Amenorrhea should be treated promptly to avoid missing the optimal treatment period. There are many reasons that can cause amenorrhea, and women should know the reasons and then prescribe the right medicine in order to recover quickly.
For young women or women preparing for pregnancy, amenorrhea is always not good. If amenorrhea occurs, they may not be able to conceive. Therefore, women should develop good lifestyle habits to prevent the occurrence of amenorrhea.
