Sample Closure:
Ms. Garrison, there are a few reasons you may not be having regular periods.
The first thing we need to do is determine whether you are pregnant. We can
do that with a simple urine test.
The other thing we need to do is conduct a breast and pelvic exam,
especially since you have had some nipple discharge, and look for any signs
of menopause. Menopause is highly unlikely in your age group, but on rare
occasions it may occur.
A blood test to measure your hormone levels will also help us determine if
you are menopausal or have a hormonal imbalance.
This will give us a good start in figuring out why you haven’t had your
period, and we will go from there if we don’t find anything. Do you have
any questions for me?
I will follow you up

good control, controlling blood sugar requires determination, let’s discuss

High blood pressure could indicate your blood vessels are having trouble.
Hypertension-high blood pressure could complicate a diabetic problem, it
could cause stroke, affect function of heart, and even kidneys,.
