Q My daughter is 18 yrs 9 months old. She faces irregularity in menstruation cycle. The flow is also very scanty. On seeing a gynecologist we were advised to undergo the following test: DHEAS, LH, FSH, Testosterone, Total Insulin(F) and TSH. The reports have not come yet. .Doctor has advised a 6 months course of Restozea, 2 capsules daily. We have not started the medicine yet. Please advise. N.S: Her height is 55"and weight is 75 kg.
According to your daughters height, her weight should be around 62 to 67 kgs ideally, she is over weight now. Excessive weight acts as one of the contributing factor for irregular period. Restozeal contains linoleic acid and resveratrol which is said to help in decreasing weight, may be because of that your doctor prescribed it to her. You can follow her advice. Other cause that can be thought of is polycystic ovarian disease. But exact can be said only after seeing the reports. Consult your doctor again after the reports.
