Patient's question:
Doctor, I have always had some irregular periods. Recently, for the past three months or so, my periods have been accompanied by a significant amount of black blood clots. Before each period, I experience lower abdominal pain for about a week before it starts. This time, there was no lower abdominal pain, and it started directly. However, the amount of blood was very little, mixed with black blood and clots. Every month, my period is delayed by about one week. When I had a thorough check-up for my irregular periods before, the doctor said it was fine as long as each cycle was relatively consistent. I don't know if this is a problem.Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your menstrual cycle is always 37 days, it is normal, but the presence of blood clots may be due to qi stagnation and blood stasis, or endocrine disorders. Okay, you can go to the gynecology department of a hospital for an ultrasound examination to check carefully and identify the cause for treatment. If necessary, you can try traditional Chinese medicine regulation under the guidance of a doctor. Pay attention to maintaining a calm mood, avoiding excessive mental stress, ensuring a balanced diet, and maintaining a regular lifestyle to avoid staying up late. For gynecological patients, in addition to standard treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and eating less spicy and irritating foods. Finally, I advise female patients to have regular follow-up examinations!
