Disease description:

My menstrual cycle is irregular—I often experience delayed periods or go two to three months without menstruating. Recently, my complexion has also been poor. A friend suggested I get checked, saying my ovarian function might be impaired. Could you please tell me the symptoms of diminished ovarian function?

Hello, the ovaries are extremely important for women. Poor ovarian function can significantly affect a woman’s fertility and also have direct impacts on other aspects of her health. Besides causing infertility, the most apparent symptom of impaired ovarian function is menstrual irregularity—such as reduced menstrual flow or prolonged menstrual periods—and it may also affect vaginal discharge. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
