How should irregular menstruation be treated?

Patient's question:

During menstruation, the flow is relatively heavy, and the cycle is not very regular. After taking a lot of traditional Chinese medicine, the menstruation has improved significantly, but it is still irregular. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation can easily interfere with the chances of childbirth. It can be actively managed for self-healing. Long-term menstrual irregularity can easily lead to infertility. There may be potential for endocrine disorders and infertility, but menstrual irregularity should only be a symptom, not the cause. If you are not under pressure to conceive and the irregularity is not severe, it may not need to be addressed. If treatment is necessary, traditional Chinese medicine regulation is still recommended. Western medicine treatment for menstrual irregularity is also available, generally involving the creation of an artificial cycle.
