Patient's question:
Doctor, I was just diagnosed with anemia a few weeks ago. In the past few months, my menstrual cycle has been very irregular. Do you think anemia can cause menstrual disorders?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, anemia can indeed affect menstruation. From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, most cases are caused by insufficient qi and blood. It is recommended to take a variety of qi and blood-tonifying herbs for regulation, such as Ba Zhen Wan. For specific medication use, please follow the doctor's advice. In terms of diet, it is essential to pay attention to nutrition and can include foods like jujubes or Chinese yam. Daily routines should be maintained regularly, or they can be combined with acupuncture treatment.
