Patient's question:
My period hasn't come for three months, and my complexion is also very poor. I want to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. What are the Chinese patent medicines for treating amenorrhea?Doctor's answer:
If menstruation does not occur for three months, in this case, it is first necessary to undergo a thorough examination, including a six-item sex hormone test and a magnetic resonance imaging of the uterine appendages. The first thing to rule out is pregnancy. Amenorrhea is a disease caused by endocrine disorders. From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, it involves syndrome differentiation and treatment to identify the underlying cause and then use corresponding Chinese herbal medicine for treatment. From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, amenorrhea can be divided into several types, such as stagnation caused by cold pathogens, deficiency of the spleen and kidneys, excessive blood heat, and blood stasis, all of which can lead to amenorrhea. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment.
