Patient's question:
I had my last menstrual period on January 14, 2013, and it came again on January 31, 2013. It started being heavy on the 2nd and was still very heavy on the 4th.Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation has many causes, which are typically classified into two major categories in clinical practice: one is functional, such as irregular menstruation caused by endocrine dysfunction; the other is organic, such as conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, which can also lead to irregular menstruation.Go to the hospital for a check-up and take medication as prescribed. In your daily diet, consume more foods that boost qi and blood, or traditional Chinese medicine herbs for regulating menstruation, such as angelica sinensis (Danggui), astragalus (Huangqi), and Leonurus cardiaca (Yimucao). Drink plenty of water, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to a balanced diet, and engage in regular exercise.
Wishing you good health.
