Patient's question:
My previous menstruation was quite normal, but every time I had my period, my stomach would ache. However, in the past two years, the amount of my menstruation has been decreasing, and even after taking some traditional Chinese medicine like Xiaoyao Pill and Wuji Baifeng Pill, it hasn't made much difference. Can taking Chinese medicine help regulate a lighter menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Menstruation is often associated with physical weakness, deficiency of qi and blood, kidney deficiency, spleen deficiency, liver stagnation, and other underlying causes. It is important to consult a doctor for pulse diagnosis and syndrome differentiation to determine the appropriate treatment. Herbal medicine regulation can be considered based on the specific condition. It is recommended to visit the traditional Chinese medicine department of a nearby hospital for pulse diagnosis and syndrome differentiation, followed by medication treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, maintaining a regular lifestyle and avoiding emotional fluctuations and exposure to cold can help prevent further issues.
