Menstruation is a barometer of a woman's physical health. If the menstrual cycle arrives on time and the amount is normal, it indicates that the woman's body is healthy. If menstruation is always delayed or there are always some changes in menstrual flow, it may be caused by endocrine disorders. So, what hormones should be checked for menstrual disorders?
When women experience menstrual irregularities, they need to go to the gynecology department and undergo six hormone tests, mainly to check for follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, and to check the corpus luteum function of women. The six hormone tests are usually conducted around the 3rd to 5th day of menstruation. It is important to go to the hospital on an empty stomach for blood tests, and to have a light diet and avoid oily foods the day before the test.
There are many reasons that can cause menstrual irregularities, which may be due to obesity or excessive dieting, or it may be caused by uterine coldness. In addition, women's unhealthy diet and preference for frozen foods can also lead to menstrual irregularities. Some gynecological diseases, such as pelvic inflammatory disease or endometritis, can affect menstruation.
In general, menstrual disorders require six hormone tests, mainly to check the corpus luteum function and follicle stimulating hormone in women. Women need to adjust their diet and lifestyle before undergoing hormone tests, pay attention to relaxing themselves, and avoid putting too much psychological pressure on themselves.
