Patient's question:
Last September, I had an abortion. My menstrual cycle came on time every month, but the amount became less each time, and the color was a bit darker. I took hormone medication for three months, but it didn't help. Now I want to have a child. Test results: Hormones are normal, transvaginal ultrasound and abdominal ultrasound are normal. Past treatment and effectiveness: A doctor at Zhongdu Hospital suspected cervical adhesions and suggested I get an IUD. I also took progesterone because my endometrium was thin. What kind of help do you need: Could it be cervical adhesions? How can the menstrual quality change?Doctor's answer:
You have such a small amount of menstrual flow, which should be caused by a problem of uterine cold. It has a certain relationship with pelvic inflammatory disease. If you don't feel at ease, you can consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.Suggestions: Based on your symptoms, it is likely that uterine cold is caused by qi and blood deficiency. Therefore, you should eat more foods that replenish qi and blood, such as peanuts and jujubes, in your daily diet. In terms of medication, you can use Ai Fu Nu Gong Wan (Aconite and Cinnamon Bark Pill) yourself, which also has a good stabilizing effect. Pay attention to your diet and reduce the intake of melon-type foods.
