Patient's question:
This month Aunt Flo is delayed again, and the amount is not much. The color is black. Is it menstrual disorder that Aunt Flo's purple time is not as accurate as before?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a delay or advancement of the menstrual period within one week is considered normal. If the menstrual blood is purple, it may be due to coldness and uterine coldness, where the blood stagnates in the uterus, leading to blood clots forming inside. Maintain a relaxed spirit and keep a cheerful mood. Avoid exposure to cold and do not consume extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Do not get angry, and drink more brown sugar water to promote blood circulation and regulate menstruation. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can also take herbal medications such as Ai Fu Nu Gong Wan (Warm Uterus Pill) and Shao Fu Zhu Yu Jiao Nang (Abdominal Pain Relieving Capsule) in combination. Additionally, you can visit the traditional Chinese medicine department of a hospital for syndrome differentiation treatment.
