Patient's question:
My daughter's menstrual cycle is never regular. Sometimes she only has her period once every two months. Additionally, the amount of blood flow varies, and she experiences menstrual cramps. Hello, does this count as irregular menstruation? How should she take care of herself for better regulation? What foods should she eat?Doctor's answer:
Normal menstruation is mostly regular and consistent. If the menstrual period arrives at irregular times and the flow varies, sometimes heavy and sometimes light, this is a manifestation of menstrual irregularity. First, an ultrasound examination and a test for six sex hormones should be conducted to rule out pathological causes. Under the guidance of a local doctor, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for regulation, or artificial cycle therapy can be adopted. Most cases can be completely restored to normal menstruation.
