Patient's question:
Recently, I've always felt discomfort in my lower abdomen, especially when Aunt Flo comes, it hurts terribly. And Aunt Flo is also very irregular, not only is she not on time, but the amount and color are also wrong. Please ask: What could be the reason for having a small menstrual flow, and why is it getting even less now?Doctor's answer:
If your menstrual flow is reduced, it may be due to aging. Some traditional Chinese medicine practitioners may recommend qi-tonifying treatments. However, this approach only addresses the symptoms rather than the root cause. It is essential to identify the underlying reasons for the reduced menstrual flow. If the menstrual flow continues to decrease, it is important to check for other potential issues, such as digestive and absorption functions of the spleen and stomach, or the ability of liver qi to extend. Additionally, if traditional Chinese medicine treatments do not yield results over a long period, it may indicate blocked meridians, in which case acupuncture can be used to unblock them, leading to better outcomes.Gynecological diseases are conditions that are prone to occur. During treatment, women should pay close attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay extra attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet. Finally, we wish all female patients a speedy recovery!
