Patient's question:
I always get my period about four or five days earlier than expected, and on average, it comes one more time within a year. However, the color of my period is abnormal—it's not bright red but rather slightly whitish, apart from blood clots. Sometimes, I also experience menstrual cramps. Can menstrual irregularity and abnormal color be regulated with Traditional Chinese Medicine?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual blood not only contains blood but also endometrial fragments. The color of menstruation is dark and dark. Menstrual disorders are related to endocrine disorders, luteal phase defects, and mental and neurological factors. It is suggested to always maintain a good mood and avoid overexertion. It is recommended to consult a regular hospital for a clear and thorough examination, including an ultrasound and a six-hormone test. Menstruation can be adjusted according to the results of medication treatment based on symptoms. Attention should be paid to keeping the abdomen warm and avoiding stimulating foods.
