Is it okay to do moxibustion for low menstrual flow?

Patient's question:

Recently, I also don't know what's going on. My menstrual flow is really getting less and less. How to moxibustion when the menstrual flow is low?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, for cases of reduced menstrual flow, from a TCM perspective, this is mainly caused by some cold congealing blood stasis or, alternatively, some deficiency of qi and blood. For this condition, if you want to seek treatment, it is recommended that you consider taking oral medications such as Ai Fu Nu Gong Wan (AI Fu Nu Gong Pills) or Yimucao Granules. However, if you choose to take traditional Chinese medicine, it is best to consult a TCM doctor at a hospital first.
For moxibustion, it is primarily used for symptomatic relief, with local applications targeting points such as Qihai, Guanyuan, or Sanyinjiao.
