Patient's question:
I have always had a relatively small amount of menstrual flow, which has lasted for about half a year. The color is a bit pale, and only a little bit of blood is released on the first day of my period, along with a few blood clots. I went to the children's hospital, and the doctor prescribed me herbs to boost qi and promote blood circulation. However, after taking them, I didn't see any improvement. What should I do about the small amount of pale-colored menstrual flow?Doctor's answer:
Reappearance of reduced menstrual volume and pale color also indicates menstrual disorders. If the use of blood-activating medications is ineffective, hormone level testing (including 6 hormone tests) is generally required to assess hormone levels. Additionally, an ultrasound examination can be performed to rule out possible organic inflammation. Under the guidance of a local physician, artificial cycle therapy or traditional Chinese medicine regulation can be used to restore normal menstruation.
