How to Treat Irregular Menstruation with Fewer Side Effects on the Liver

Patient's question:

I have a juvenile uterus, and my menstruation depends on medication. Currently, I am taking Fertilect Estradiol Valerate Tablets, which I have been taking long-term. I've heard that this medication is particularly bad for the liver.

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation is a common gynecological disorder. It is characterized by abnormalities in the menstrual cycle or bleeding volume, or by abdominal pain and systemic symptoms before or during menstruation. The causes may be due to organic lesions or functional disorders. Blood diseases, hypertension, liver disease, endocrine diseases, miscarriages, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, reproductive tract infections, and tumors can all cause menstrual disorders. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is generally related to the liver, and treatment is usually based on the Siwu Decoction as a foundation formula, with modifications as needed.
