Five reasons that can cause adolescent girls to experience amenorrhea

　　Secondary during adolescence Amenorrhea In most cases, they are caused by environmental factors, emotional fluctuations, and changes in weight. Once these underlying causes are addressed, menstruation usually returns to normal. In a few cases, amenorrhea is caused by illness, such as… Polycystic ovaries Syndromes, thyroid dysfunction, tuberculosis bacteria, etc. can all lead to the resumption of menstruation after treatment. So, what are the common causes of amenorrhea in young women?

　　Reasons for amenorrhea 1 disease Factors

　　This mainly includes consumptive diseases, such as severe pulmonary tuberculosis and other serious conditions Anemia Malnutrition, among other issues, as well as specific endocrine disorders such as “obese hypogonadotropic malnutrition”; effects of various endocrine system dysfunctions within the body, such as problems with the adrenal glands, thyroid gland, pancreas, and so on. The effects of these factors can all lead to the absence of menstruation. However, in cases where amenorrhea is caused by these conditions, once the disease is cured, menstruation will naturally resume.

　　Cause 2 of amenorrhea: Obstruction in the lower part of the reproductive tract

　　For example uterus In areas such as the cervix, vagina, hymen, and labia, there may be congenital atresia or adhesive closure resulting from acquired injuries. Although menstruation occurs, the menstrual blood is unable to flow out. This condition is referred to as latent or pseudomenorrhea. Blockages in the lower part of the reproductive tract can be completely cured with medical treatment.

　　Cause 3 of amenorrhea: Tuberculous endometritis

　　This occurs because the tuberculosis bacteria invade the endometrium, causing it to become inflamed and damaged to varying degrees. Eventually, scar tissue forms, leading to amenorrhea. Therefore, if one develops tuberculous endometritis, it should be treated promptly without any delay.

　　Cause 4 of amenorrhea: Imperfect or underdeveloped reproductive organs

　　Some people are born without ovaries, or their ovaries are underdeveloped or damaged, and are unable to produce estrogen and progesterone. As a result, the endometrium does not undergo cyclical changes, and there is no shedding of the endometrial lining, which means that menstruation does not occur.

　　In some cases, there is a congenital absence of the uterus, or underdevelopment of the endometrium, or damage to the endometrium. Even if the ovaries function properly and the secretion of estrogen and progesterone is normal, menstruation will not occur.

　　Cause 5 of Amenorrhea: Abnormal function of the pituitary gland or hypothalamus

　　The pituitary gland is capable of secreting gonadotropins. Gonadotropins play a role in regulating ovarian function and maintaining menstruation. If the function of the pituitary gland is disrupted, it will affect the secretion of gonadotropins, which in turn impacts the function of the ovaries. Abnormal ovarian function can lead to amenorrhea.

　　Abnormal function of the hypothalamus can also lead to amenorrhea. There are many reasons that can lead to dysfunction of the hypothalamus, such as mental stress, grief and worry, fear and anxiety, tension and fatigue, as well as environmental changes and exposure to cold. Amenorrhea caused by the hypothalamus is relatively common.

　　If amenorrhea is detected, it should be addressed promptly hospital Identifying the cause of the condition and treating it accordingly usually yields satisfactory results. It is impossible to avoid seeking medical treatment when necessary. Otherwise, the longer the period of amenorrhea persists, the more severely the uterus will atrophy, and the less effective the treatment will be.
