【摘要】
多囊性卵巢症候群是生育年齡婦女最常見的生殖內分泌病變,同時也是造成女性不孕的常見原因之一。根據其臨床表現,中醫將此疾病歸屬於「月經不調」、「閉經」、「不孕」等範疇來論治。本病例為一32 歲女性,自述青春期起便有月經週期紊亂症狀,壓力大時甚則半年月經未行。患者於2016 年起在本院中醫部斷斷續續接受中藥治療,其月經淋漓不盡、月經後期的症狀皆有明顯改善;爾後又因忙碌而停止運動及飲食不忌,導致月經後期等症狀再度出現,因而再次前來就診。本篇病例報告希冀經由臨床的治療經驗與文獻探討,提供臨床中醫實務的案例分享,其中患者的病史進展,生活習慣改變與改善月經週期之間的關係亦為本病例報告所要分享的重點之一。
