Patient's question:
Hello, I am 31 years old this year and have one child who is 6 years old. Two years ago, I had an induced abortion. After that, my menstrual cycle was delayed for a period of time. After taking Gan Gong Huangtai Tong for regulation, it returned to normal. Half a year later, it was out of order again. It didn’t come for two months, and I took another dose of progesterone. After having a normal menstrual cycle for two months, the problem reappeared. My last menstrual period was on November 5th, and as of December 13th, it has still not arrived. Pregnancy is completely ruled out. Should I see a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for regulation? Will it be a problem if I always rely on progesterone? What should I do? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
If menstruation is delayed, it may also be due to factors such as poor rest, mental stress, gynecological inflammation, or endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to delayed menstruation. In terms of general treatment, it is recommended to nourish the kidneys, enrich the blood, and regulate menstruation. It is advisable to visit a hospital and consult a doctor for an examination. Based on your physical condition, the doctor can prescribe appropriate medication, which should yield good results.The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, while avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
