Patient's question:
Menstrual volume is very low, almost no sex hormone, and the endometrium has been carefully examined and found to be normal. If taking Huo Xue Tiao Jing capsules for regulation, should they be taken before or after menstruation? How long should they be taken each time? For how many months? I previously took Yi Mu Cao Ba Zhen Yi Mu Wan, but it didn't work. This one seems to be more effective. It helps a lot for a couple of days during menstruation, but symptoms are worse when not taken. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, your condition is that you have your period but with a low flow. If you are using it for low menstrual flow and blood stagnation, you can take the medication before your menstrual cycle. If you are using it for period regulation, you can take the medication after your period ends. Pay attention to keeping your abdomen warm and avoid touching cold or cool things. For gynecological patients, in addition to immediate treatment, it is also important to focus on self-care training, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment, keeping the private area clean, avoiding sexual intercourse, and eating less spicy and irritating foods.
