Patient's question:
Female, 27 years old, experiencing severe lower abdominal pain during menstruation, it's really troublesome. I want to consult, can menstrual pain be treated and improved?Doctor's answer:
In your case, most of the issues are likely caused by a condition known as "uterine cold," which is primarily due to factors such as kidney deficiency, spleen qi deficiency, blood stasis, and endocrine factors. It is recommended to try oral uterine-warming medications. During your period, it is essential to avoid cold foods and cold showers. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular sleep schedules, take precautions against cold exposure, consume light and soft foods in their daily diet, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of warm water.
