So what is the reason for delayed menstruation without ovulation? What should I do if my menstrual cycle is delayed and I don't ovulate? If you don't know, read this article quickly.
1、 What are the reasons for women not ovulating
1. Gynecological diseases
Taking pelvic inflammatory disease as an example, when inflammation occurs in the fallopian tubes, they become thicker, fibrotic, and even adhere to the ovaries, uterus, and surrounding organ tissues, forming a hard and fixed mass. In severe cases, it can hinder ovarian ovulation.
2. Premature ovarian failure
Women with premature ovarian failure have exhausted their follicles and are unable to produce new ones, resulting in the inability to form new mature eggs. This is a very dangerous situation for women who want to conceive and have children.
3. Polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome have increased ovarian volume, but the follicles cannot develop and mature, thus unable to release mature eggs normally. They need to rely on medication to stimulate development and ovulation.
4. Ovarian dysfunction
Ovarian dysfunction is also one of the causes of anovulation, including Turner syndrome, organic damage to the ovaries, secondary amenorrhea, and other conditions. Attention, tumors, inflammation management, or radiation exposure can all cause organic damage to the ovaries!
5. Blockage of fallopian tubes
Whether the fallopian tubes are usually a crucial factor for pregnancy. If there is a blockage in the fallopian tubes, it can directly lead to the inability of follicles to pass through the tubes, which is also a major reason for the inability of eggs to be released normally!
6. Luteal insufficiency
The corpus luteum is transformed from mature eggs during follicular development. Luteal insufficiency indicates problems with follicular development, and insufficient follicle count can naturally affect the normal release of eggs.
7. Insufficient hormone secretion
Women with hormone secretion problems are also prone to infertility. If female estrogen secretion cannot reach its climax, it can lead to the inability of the ovaries to ovulate, resulting in the consequence of infertility!
8. Hypothalamic disorders
Female hypothalamic disorders can also affect ovulation, such as idiopathic diencephalic amenorrhea, psychogenic amenorrhea, functional hyperprolactinemia, anorexia nervosa, brain tumors, encephalitis, and even brain trauma, which can lead to adverse consequences of anovulation!
9. Excessive physical activity
If women engage in vigorous physical exercise or excessive exercise for a long time, it will suppress the efficiency of the pituitary gland at the bottom of the brain in producing gonadotropins, thereby interfering with the ovulation cycle and affecting the normal release of eggs.
2、 What should I do if I don't ovulate and become infertile
1. Cooperate with the doctor's examination to clarify the cause of anovulation.
2. According to the doctor's guidance, use ovulation inducing drugs or undergo ovulation induction treatment.
3. Clearing the fallopian tubes, flushing or imaging the fallopian tubes.
4. Develop good lifestyle habits and regulate endocrine function. Pay attention to regulating your mood and avoid putting too much pressure on yourself while preparing for pregnancy. Keep yourself happy.
5. If it is caused by other physical diseases, such as gynecological diseases, other diseases must be treated first.
