Miss Xu, 23 years old, 75kg, 158cm, with a body mass index () of 30.0, has reached obesity level. Miss Xu's menstruation has been very chaotic. She often comes once every 40 to 50 days, and the menstrual flow is not much. Generally, it ends in three days. There are also many zits on the face and upper back. The reason for this visit is that menstruation has lasted 15 days. Sometimes it's heavy, sometimes it's small, which really bothers me.

So I went to the hospital for a series of tests. The blood test results showed that the concentration of androgen in the blood was high, estrogen was in the normal range, lutein was not detected, follicle hormone (FSH) secreted by pituitary gland was in the normal range, but luteinizing hormone (LH) was much higher. * * * Ultrasound examination showed that there were many small follicles arranged in a pearl necklace in the ovary, and the thickness of the endometrium was 65438±0.8cm, showing excessive thickening.

Doctors diagnosed obesity, polycystic ovary syndrome and endometrial hyperplasia.

Polycystic ovary syndrome! Miss Xu thought: What is this? Is it an ovarian tumor? What should I do?

In fact, PCOS is only "long-term anovulation", and endometrial hyperplasia is also a hormonal imbalance caused by "long-term anovulation". The main cause of PCOS in Miss Xu is obesity and overweight, which can be improved by changing lifestyle and losing weight! If Miss Xu still can't ovulate normally when she plans to get pregnant in the future, she can use ovulation-promoting drugs (both oral and injection) to achieve the effect of ovulation and have the opportunity to get pregnant.

The doctor spent half an hour explaining and explaining to Miss Xu, but Miss Xu was still at a loss. At this time, it would be nice if there were health books describing polycystic ovary syndrome for Miss Xu to see! For example, Dear Miss He is such a book, and one chapter of it is devoted to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Influence of "health books" and "health food" on health. The content of health books is to improve health and stay away from diseases. However, if they are good for health, they must be done according to the methods in the book, and they must be clearly and persistently implemented.

When the general public is exposed to frequent advertisements (TV, radio or magazines), their ideas and views on health food will change from "disbelief" to "dubious", and when friends and relatives chat, they will become "convinced". Of course, the main ingredients of health food claim to be beneficial to human body, but if the auxiliary ingredients contain substances harmful to human body, even if the content is small, it will still damage health, the most common is the damage to kidney function, and there have been cases where people have to rely on kidney washing to survive. What's more, there are many health foods, which are often "insufficient main ingredients", and eating them can't improve health. If you are unfortunate enough to buy such health food, it is just a waste of money.

The original intention of doctors to write health books is to "benefit the people". Many doctors diagnose and treat patients every day. Because they are too busy, they don't have enough time to explain the relevant pathogenesis to every patient and their families. Therefore, a few doctors will use their leisure time to write books on diseases and medical care in easy-to-understand language, and even add methods on how to prevent diseases and keep healthy, hoping that people can read by themselves and achieve the goal of "curing diseases and strengthening the body without diseases"
