Patient's question:
I got married last year, and recently I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain. It's especially bad during my period, and I'm very worried it might affect my fertility. Also, I'm extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts. Can I take Shugan Granules during my menstrual period?Doctor's answer:
During the menstrual period, it is not advisable to take traditional Chinese medicine that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis. You can take Shugan Granules (low sugar type). A healthy and reasonable dietary habit, combined with appropriate physical exercise and timely regulation, can not only affect the patient's life but also lead to the occurrence of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
