How can the menstrual period be shortened?

Patient's question:

A friend of mine has had almost a ten-day or even half-month menstrual period every month after an IUD insertion, with continuous bleeding. The doctor refuses to remove the IUD, and she is in great pain. How can the menstrual period be shortened?

Doctor's answer:

Menstruation is to expel the dirty blood in the body. It is only truly complete when it flows out. If the menstrual period is artificially shortened, it is unscientific and also harmful to the body.
The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects the patient's body but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a leukorrhea test in the gynecology department of the hospital. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
