Patient's question:
Doctor,I got an IUD when my baby was 6 months old. I stopped breastfeeding at 10 months and then got my period (November 2, 2005). The second time was on December 7. This month, I haven’t had my period yet. Before having the baby, my periods always came 4–5 days early. Is it normal now? Also, I have an "Aima" IUD. Do I need to remove it in the future? Are there any side effects? Thank you!!!
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it is considered that the irregular menstruation is caused by endocrine disorders. You can take Motherwort Granules and Angelica Sinensis Regulation Capsules to regulate your menstrual cycle. In daily life, you should maintain a regular routine, pay attention to rest, avoid overexertion, and especially avoid cold and dampness during your period. Avoid excessive dieting, pay attention to your dietary structure, and consume more lean meat, grains, deep green leafy vegetables, and calcium-rich foods. Avoid overeating cold and raw foods. Maintain a cheerful mood. Strengthen exercise to improve your physical fitness. Wishing you good health.
