Patient's question:
In the past year, my menstrual cycle has been irregular. My friend has collected motherwort for me to drink. Is it okay to drink motherwort for irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of menstrual irregularity can vary greatly, which may include irregular cycles, or the amount of menstrual flow may be reduced. Some patients may also experience symptoms such as continuous increases in menstrual flow. Motherwort primarily has the effect of invigorating blood and resolving stasis. It is effective in regulating menstruation for those with reduced menstrual flow. However, it is not recommended to take motherwort if the menstrual flow is excessive. It is advised to have a thorough examination of the six female hormones at the hospital and take medication under the guidance of a doctor based on the examination results.
