Why weight loss can lead to missed periods

Menstruation may not occur during weight loss due to excessive dieting, psychological factors, endocrine disorders, low body fat, medication side effects, and other reasons. After experiencing discomfort symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and receive standardized treatment.

1. Excessive dieting: If dieting is used for a long time during weight loss, it can lead to malnutrition, affect the growth rate of the endometrium, and cause menstrual disorders. During this period, maintain a balanced nutrition.

2. Psychological factors:

Weight loss can lead to abnormal pituitary and hypothalamic function, usually accompanied by symptoms such as mental fatigue and anxiety, causing amenorrhea. During weight loss, it is important to maintain a positive mindset.

3. Endocrine disorders:

During weight loss, if one does not pay attention to regular sleep patterns, coupled with long-term staying up late and lack of sleep, it can lead to endocrine disorders and menstrual abnormalities.

Medications such as Wuji Baifeng Pill, estradiol valerate tablets, and motherwort granules can be used according to medical advice. 4. Low body fat: If one blindly loses weight excessively, low body fat can affect the function of the hypothalamus and ovaries, leading to irregular menstrual cycles such as missed periods. Therefore, avoid excessive weight loss.5. Drug side effects:

If weight loss drugs are used during weight loss, they may contain a large amount of hormones. Long term use of these drugs can cause hormonal imbalances in the body, leading to irregular menstruation. It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and choose a legitimate channel when selecting medication. During weight loss, we should closely monitor our physical changes, especially changes in the menstrual cycle. If any abnormalities occur, we should promptly identify the problem and take measures.
