Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 22 years old this year. Recently, I feel that my menstrual cycle is irregular. I don't know what's going on. I asked my classmates who understand medicine, and they recommended that I find someone to get a prescription. I would like to ask the doctor for advice and request a traditional Chinese medicine prescription for an irregular menstrual cycle.Doctor's answer:
Formulas for irregular menstruation cannot be one-size-fits-all. They must be determined based on clinical diagnosis and symptoms, practicing syndrome differentiation and treatment to achieve better efficacy. If the issue is caused by qi and blood deficiency, herbal formulas like Ginseng and Poria White Peony Pill can be used for nourishment. If it is due to liver qi stagnation and blood deficiency, Jia Wei Xiao Yao Wan can be taken. For qi stagnation and blood stasis, herbs like Leonurus Leonuri Granules can be used. Therefore, medication should be chosen based on individual symptoms.Gynecological diseases are conditions that are prone to occur. During medication, women should pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients maintain clean external genitalia and change underwear frequently.
