Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me what could be causing the IUD to loosen and irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood. This is often due to prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is deficient, it cannot properly regulate the flow 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 in place.It is recommended to take a large dose of Astragalus root decoction to boost qi and stop bleeding. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's health but can also lead to gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
