Patient's question:
I have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. My menstrual cycle has always been delayed by 4 days, but I am experiencing a recurrence of spotting. My underwear had blood stains for about two weeks in the middle of the month, and then it completely stopped. Sometimes I have a dull ache in my abdomen and a feeling of heaviness. I am also anemic. How should I treat it and what medication should I take?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual blood flows excessively, which is often related to endocrine disorders. In this case, it is recommended to consult a gynecologist for a hormone panel test. For anemia, it is advisable to maintain a stable diet and consume more foods that boost qi, such as jujubes, black fungus, lean meat, etc. If necessary, take iron supplements to correct the anemia. Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) poses significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, focus on self-care, such as eating more fruits and vegetables and avoiding foods. It is hoped that patients with pelvic inflammatory disease can receive professional treatment.
