Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is it normal for my period to only last 3 days?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation has many causes, which are typically divided into two major categories in clinical practice: one is functional, such as menstrual irregularities caused by endocrine dysfunction; the other is organic, such as conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, which can also lead to menstrual irregularities.Go to the hospital for a check-up and take medication as prescribed. In the meantime, eat more foods that boost qi and blood, or try traditional Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation, such as angelica sinensis (Dang Gui), astragalus (Huang Qi), and Leonurus cardiaca (Yi Mu Cao). Drink plenty of water, reduce intake of spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to a balanced diet, and exercise more.
Wishing you good health.
