Patient's question:
In the hospital, I am 34 years old this year. In the past few months, my menstrual cycle has suddenly become abnormal for some reason. The amount of blood flow is particularly low, and it is very dark, often with blood clots. I don't know what the problem is. I want to ask the doctor, what does it mean if the menstrual flow is low, dark, and has clots?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is often considered to be closely related to relatively low levels of sex hormones in the body. The color turning white and the presence of blood clots suggest poor blood flow during menstruation. It is recommended to take some traditional Chinese medicine formulas that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis for a period of time. In daily life, consume more foods such as red dates, pork liver, duck blood, and chicken blood. Avoid extremely cold and spicy, irritating foods. Moderate exercise is beneficial for stability. If necessary, have a thorough check-up on six female hormone indicators and, if needed, use sex hormone drugs for symptomatic treatment.
