Patient's question:
Over the past two years, my menstrual flow has gradually decreased. What could be causing this? Is there any effective treatment available?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is often seen in Traditional Chinese Medicine due to causes such as qi and blood deficiency, kidney deficiency, and others, leading to it. It can also be caused by factors like general physical weakness, anemia, early ovarian failure, and others. On a daily basis, it is recommended to consume more foods that replenish qi and blood and tonify the spleen and kidneys, such as jujubes, Chinese yam, goji berries, lotus seeds, etc., for dietary and therapeutic care. Appropriate running exercises and a regular lifestyle are also helpful. Avoid staying up late and excessive life stress or emotional shocks. If possible, herbal medicine can also be used for symptomatic treatment.
