Patient's question:
Health consultation description: I have previously undergone hysteroscopy, but the condition recurred. It was said that too many surgeries are not good because I still want to get pregnant this year. I want to resolve this issue. Is there any solution? I am 25 years old and very anxious.Concerned assistance: Every time I have my period, there are quite a few blood clots, and I also experience headaches and menstrual pain. When I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, it felt like the doctors always prescribed a bunch of medications, but they didn’t seem to be effective.
Doctor's answer:
The causes of excessive menstrual bleeding are due to a weak constitution, insufficient middle Qi, dietary and physical exhaustion, spleen damage leading to weakened Qi, and the leakage of Qi, blood, and water. A naturally excessive Yang constitution, extreme emotions, the transformation of five emotions into fire, excessive consumption of pungent foods, external heat pathogens, heat accumulating in the lower abdomen, forcing blood to flow excessively. Factors such as improper dietary changes during menstruation, prolonged dysentery, stagnant blood, postpartum blood clots, and new blood unable to return to its proper path contribute to this condition.Treatment for this condition should involve nourishing Yin, cooling blood, promoting blood circulation to resolve stagnation, replenishing Qi to control bleeding, and reinforcing the (Chong) meridian with topical medications. During menstruation, if only mild pain is felt, simple activities can help alleviate pelvic congestion and reduce pain. Local cold compresses or light activities such as walking can prevent lower abdominal discomfort, and it is recommended to take small doses of pain relievers.
