Patient's question:
Can irregular periods be regulated by diet? Is it okay to eat before it's finished? Or should I wait until it's over to eat?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation can be treated with some traditional Chinese medicines. It is best to take them after the menstrual period. During the menstrual period, avoid getting wet in the rain and stay away from dampness. Avoid excessive dieting, smoking, and limit alcohol consumption. Pay attention to your dietary structure, consuming more lean meat, grains, dark green leafy vegetables, and calcium-rich foods. Avoid overeating extremely cold foods. Always maintain a calm mood, exercise more, and improve your physical fitness. During the menstrual period, you can also drink plenty of brown sugar water, which can effectively relieve menstrual cramps and help with the menstrual process.
