Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation, then last month I bought Chinese medicine to drink. Because I ate stimulating food that month, my period didn't come. I usually come on the 26th, but this month my period came on the 19th. However, I have already bought Chinese medicine but haven't started drinking it yet. Now, during my period, should I still drink it?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation can be regulated using traditional Chinese medicine, but it is recommended to temporarily stop taking medication during the menstrual period. If you continue to take medication during this time, it may easily lead to delayed menstruation or an excessive amount of menstrual flow. After the menstrual period ends, you can resume taking the medication. Gynecological diseases are conditions that are prone to occur, and during treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay close attention to maintaining cleanliness. A light diet should be the foundation of their dietary habits, and they should also pay attention to maintaining hygiene in the vaginal area.
