Patient's question:
In the past year, my menstrual flow has been light, with dark-colored discharge. My blood pressure is very low, I feel weak, I love to sleep, and I often catch colds around the time of my period. Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners said I have a deficiency of both yin and yang.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, you usually have a low menstrual flow with dark color, accompanied by dizziness, fatigue, and weakness. Recommendations: According to what you've described, in your case, it is mainly considered to be due to insufficient qi and blood. Pay attention to dietary nourishment in your daily life, with a balanced and nutritious diet. Eat more protein-rich foods such as eggs, dairy products, beans, and foods like ginger, jujubes, eel grass, and spinach. You can also engage in appropriate exercise to enhance your physical fitness and prevent occupational fatigue. For gynecological patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care at work. For example, pay more attention to personal hygiene, and avoid sexual activity during medication. Lastly, we advise female patients to have regular follow-up examinations!
