Patient's question:
I doubt I have an endocrine disorder. My menstrual cycle is particularly short, and the amount of blood flow is very little, it cleans up in just one day. I went to see an old Chinese medicine practitioner for medication to regulate my condition. After taking it, I felt menstrual cramps, and the amount of blood flow was still very little. It didn't work well, maybe it wasn't the right prescription. I'm asking, what kind of medicine should I take for less menstrual flow with menstrual cramps?Doctor's answer:
With less menstrual flow accompanied by dysmenorrhea, it is generally considered that there may be a possibility of uterine cold, or it could be caused by abnormal endometrium or abnormal hormone levels. It is recommended to first take some uterine-warming medication to regulate the condition. If it doesn't improve, go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound and a detailed check of six hormone excretion tests. Under the guidance of a doctor, follow a standardized treatment plan with fixed timing and dosage, and then have a follow-up check. At the same time, pay attention to preventing abdominal cold and avoid extreme cold, spicy, and irritating foods!
