Patient's question:
My wife has had very little menstrual flow for the past two months. My friend suggested that she could take motherwort to regulate it, so I wanted to ask if it's okay to take motherwort when the menstrual flow is low? What are the potential negative effects on the body from regularly taking motherwort? Are there any other methods that can be used to regulate it?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your menstrual flow is very light, which may be due to insufficient qi and blood or blood deficiency leading to reduced menstrual flow. It is recommended that you follow medical advice and take Motherwort Granules orally for (regulating). During the menstrual period, pay attention to preventing cold and avoid getting chilled, as well as not eating extremely cold or irritating foods, to prevent interference with the amount of menstrual flow. Also, pay attention to rest and maintain sufficient deep sleep. Wishing you good health.
