Patient's question:
I don't know if it's because I've been working overtime these past few months, but I've noticed that my period has been irregular and the amount of blood flow is abnormal. Sometimes it's light, and I have to change sanitary pads several times a day. Even when it's heavier, I sometimes feel a bit dizzy. Apart from a bit of anemia, I always need to eat a lot of energy-boosting foods after my period.What kind of help do you need: What does it mean when there's a discharge with blood?
Doctor's answer:
Turbid discharge is often caused by emotional depression, excessive exertion, improper living and dietary habits after childbirth or miscarriage, or irregular sexual activity, leading to endocrine dysfunction of the Chong and Ren meridians. Prolonged blood gushing can deplete the Qi and blood of the viscera. Timely treatment is necessary for patients with turbid discharge, who should apply medication externally. There are two methods for applying medication externally: one is to ensure complete shedding of the endometrium, and the other is to promote endometrial growth, followed by the use of additional topical medications for enhanced effect. It is best to undergo a colposcopy of secretions and hormone tests to clarify the underlying cause early on, combined with targeted treatment measures.
