Patient's question:
Menstrual flow is light, usually lasting only three or four days. My hands and feet are always cold. I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain recently, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm extremely cold-sensitive. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Fatigue, weakness, aversion to cold, cold hands and feet, stomach pain, irregular menstruation are related to insufficient qi and blood and kidney yang deficiency, which are caused by long-term overwork, staying up late, and eating extremely cold and refrigerating foods.Advice: The symptoms are relatively severe. You can use Ai Fu Nuan Gong Wan (Mugwort and Aconite Warm Uterus Pills) and Gui Pi Wan (Astragalus and Wolfberry Tonifying Spleen Pills) to regulate your constitution. If convenient, you can also apply moxibustion for better results. Rest more in daily life and avoid eating extremely cold and refrigerating foods.
Dysmenorrhea is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently. Finally, I wish female patients a speedy recovery!
