Is it better to take Western medicine or Chinese medicine for amenorrhea?

Whether choosing Western medicine or Chinese medicine, the decision should be based on individual circumstances and doctor's advice, and cannot be generalized.

Whether to choose Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine to treat amenorrhea should be determined based on individual circumstances. Western medicine usually includes synthetic drugs, which have clear pharmacological effects and standardized dosages, and can quickly relieve the symptoms of amenorrhea, but may also bring some side effects. Traditional Chinese medicine is usually composed of natural plants or animals, has a milder pharmacological effect, and can regulate the body's internal environment, but the effect may be slower and there are large individual differences.

For amenorrhea with clear causes, such as polycystic ovary syndrome, Western medicine may be more suitable because it can treat specific causes. For amenorrhea with unknown causes, such as functional amenorrhea, Chinese medicine may be more suitable because it can regulate the overall internal environment of the body and promote self-regulation of the body.

Individual differences are also an important factor in choosing a treatment method. Some people are more sensitive to Western medicine, while others respond better to Chinese medicine. The choice should be made based on individual circumstances and the professional advice of your doctor.

Whether you choose Western medicine or Chinese medicine, you should use it under the guidance of a doctor and follow the correct medication method and dosage. At the same time, amenorrhea may also be a symptom of other underlying diseases, so before choosing a treatment method, you should first clarify the cause so that you can take the correct treatment measures.
