Patient's question:
Menstrual flow is light, with dark red or brown color. It has started this year and has been getting less, to the point where I can go a whole day without changing a pad and it won't leak. After drinking two months of qi-boosting oral liquid, the color has become bright red, but the flow is still light. Can I take motherwort to regulate it?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons that can lead to a decrease in menstrual flow. It is best to undergo an ultrasound and a six-item sex hormone test to determine the cause. Then, medication can be used for regulation. If the issue is luteal phase defect or uterine adhesions, it will not necessarily cause a significant decrease in menstrual flow. In some cases, medication may be needed for regulation. Gynecological diseases are a common gynecological condition. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay close attention to cleanliness.
