Patient's question:
Due to irregular menstruation, after a thorough examination, most tests were normal, except for a slightly elevated prolactin level at 41%. The doctor prescribed birth control pills (Mirena) to regulate the menstrual cycle. I started taking them on the first day of my period and continued for a week, then stopped. After stopping, I experienced vaginal bleeding. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
It is normal. It is better to regulate with traditional Chinese medicine than with Western medicine. It is recommended to rest more, drink more soy milk and honey, engage in appropriate activities, and relax your mind. Additionally, for gynecological patients during treatment, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. Personal hygiene should be paid attention to, and underwear and pants should be changed frequently. Patients must take digestive vitamins to prevent stomach problems and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
