Patient's question:
Hello everyone!Last month, before my period, I suspected I had a fungal vaginal infection, so I took fluconazole orally and used antifungal suppositories for two weeks. I didn’t stop during my period, and I also ate a lot of cold drinks in the past two days. As a result, my period last month was very light, less than one-tenth of what it used to be. This month, on the first day of my period, I still see that it’s very light—very different from before. What could be the reason?
Doctor's answer:
Pay attention to maintaining adequate sleep and rest, engage in moderate exercise, keep a calm and cheerful mindset, and consume more soy products, honey, and other foods. Additionally, drink more soy milk, as it contains phytoestrogens that are very beneficial for regulating women's health.The occurrence of irregular menstruation not only affects the patient's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
