Patient's question:
Doctor, I took Jinyuting in the first half of the month last time, and I had withdrawal bleeding within seven days. This time I took it in the second half of the month, and I haven't had withdrawal bleeding yet. Is it a case of contraceptive failure?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation has many causes, which are typically classified into two major categories in clinical practice: one is functional, such as irregular menstruation caused by endocrine dysfunction; the other is organic, such as conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, which can also lead to irregular menstruation.Go to the hospital for a check-up and take medication accordingly. In your daily diet, consume more foods that boost qi and blood, or traditional Chinese medicine herbs for regulating menstruation, such as angelica sinensis (Dang Gui), astragalus (Huang Qi), and Leonurus cardiaca (Yi Mu Cao). Drink plenty of water, eat less spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to a balanced diet, and exercise more.
Wishing you good health.
