Patient's question:
Three years after the divorce, I had one tire replaced due to the reason, and my menstrual period was delayed for a long time. Now, some blood has appeared again. I initially thought it was my period, but it hasn't stopped at all, and there isn't much. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it was leukorrhea. I want to take some medicine and apply it externally. What kind of help is needed: What medicine should be taken for leukorrhea, and how should it be applied?Doctor's answer:
Dysmenorrhea refers to non-cyclical uterine bleeding in women, characterized by sudden onset and a heavy, gush-like discharge, where a large amount of blood is lost, which is termed "sheng" (); when the condition is milder, with less bleeding and a continuous, thread-like flow, it is termed "lou" (). Although sheng and lou differ in the nature of bleeding, they often transform into each other during the course of the disease. For example, if the bleeding from sheng gradually decreases, it may turn into lou, and if the bleeding from lou intensifies, it may transform into sheng. Therefore, clinical diagnosis often involves dysmenorrhea and functional uterine bleeding. It is caused by endocrine disorders.
