Why is the interval between two menstrual periods less than ten days?

Patient's question:

This month, I had my period twice with less than ten days between them. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood, often resulting from prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is weak, it cannot properly regulate the circulation of blood, causing it to overflow outside the vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that cannot hold the blood.
It is recommended to take a large dose of astragalus decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding. The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a routine examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, while avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
