How to treat less menstrual flow and cold hands/feet

Patient's question:

I have a small amount of menstrual flow, feel cold, get colds easily, have cold hands and feet, and have taken some traditional Chinese medicine, but my menstrual flow is still small.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, because women use blood in the first half of their lives, it's not just a matter of taking traditional Chinese medicine. Over time, you need to change your own dietary and lifestyle habits:
So, first, you should eat more warm and yang-natured foods, avoid excessive consumption of very cold foods, and in winter, you can stew beef or lamb soup to drink. For example, Fu Ling ginger lamb soup is warming and tonifying. After drinking it, you'll naturally feel warmer in your hands and feet, and your blood and qi will flow more smoothly.
Second, you should increase your activity, walk and run more. When you move, your blood and qi will flow more smoothly, and your body will also feel warmer.
Third, you can soak your feet every night, adding some safflower and mugwort to enhance blood and qi circulation. Additionally, eat more jujubes, goji berries, and longans, and you can also soak them in water for long-term consumption. If you persist in doing this, you will surely see improvement.
