Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please tell me what are the reasons for having a shorter menstrual period than usual?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you mentioned, it is considered to be a manifestation of menstrual hypomenorrhea caused by endocrine disorders. It is related to your emotional state, kidney deficiency, qi and blood deficiency, blood stasis, etc. It is recommended to consult a traditional Chinese medicine gynecologist for a syndrome differentiation and treatment, and to prescribe Chinese herbal medicine for regulation.The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
