Patient's question:
I had an IUD removed in December. Since then, I have had my period twice in one month, each lasting half a month. I went for a thorough check-up and had an ultrasound, which revealed thin endometrium. The doctor prescribed Fufengtong for three months, with a box containing 2 milligrams. I only took half of it and then stopped for three days, focusing on finishing one box. Now, except for the 21-day cycle I didn't complete, this month my period suddenly didn't come. Because of the urgency, I went to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor yesterday and was prescribed herbal medicine. I took one dose last night, and today my period suddenly arrived. I am just unsure if I should continue taking it now.Doctor's answer:
Now that you are experiencing menstruation, it is related to stopping and increasing the dosage of Femoston. It is recommended that you stop using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Femoston now, as you have some skin irritation. It would be better to start taking Femoston on the fifth day of your period. As for TCM, you can consult your treating doctor. The recurrence of gynecological diseases poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients need to pay attention in daily life to maintain external genital hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive proper treatment.
