What is the situation when the menstrual flow is less and dark on the first day?

Patient's question:

On the first day, the menstrual flow was light and white, and the stomach was extremely painful. By the third day, there is almost no menstrual flow left. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

During the menstrual period, if there is a recurrence of reduced menstrual flow with a white color, this indicates symptoms of qi stagnation, blood stagnation, uterine cold, and body cold. Additionally, it may lead to abdominal pain. Therefore, if you experience such symptoms, the best approach is to consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and take herbal medicine for regulation. Herbal medicine can be quite effective for this condition. It is also important to pay attention to preventing cold exposure and avoid consuming spicy, stimulating, or raw, cold foods.
