Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that my menstrual flow isn't very heavy, the color is also quite light, and it often gets delayed. Is this a case of irregular menstruation? I would like to ask: What methods are effective for treating irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are many reasons for menstrual disorders. In clinical diagnosis, they are typically divided into two major categories: one is functional, such as menstrual disorders caused by endocrine dysfunction; the other is organic, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, among other inflammatory conditions, which can also lead to menstrual disorders.Treatment for menstrual disorders first requires a thorough examination, including ultrasound and six sex hormone tests, to identify the specific cause. Treatment should then be targeted at the underlying condition, with appropriate use of many traditional Chinese medicine herbs for regulation. Pay attention to preventing colds during the menstrual period and resting. For gynecological patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to focus on self-care training, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and eating fewer spicy and irritating foods. Finally, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
