Patient's question:
Female, 27 years old. After giving birth, her menstrual cycle has been irregular, either off schedule or with abnormal flow and color. Please ask: How can irregular menstruation be treated and diagnosed?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is advisable to find a good traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who can prescribe medication to regulate your menstrual cycle after performing the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation/olfaction, inquiry, and palpation). Additionally, maintaining a regular schedule and avoiding staying up late is important. Keeping a calm mood is beneficial. Avoid cold and spicy foods, as well as high-calorie foods. 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. Furthermore, patients should maintain a regular routine, take precautions against cold and keep warm, and consume light, thin, and soft foods in their daily diet.
