What should I do if my period is delayed every month?

Patient's question:

I have never had my period come earlier. I had a medication-induced abortion with uterine aspiration once before. One month after the surgery, my period came. For the following few months, it came every 30 days, not a day off. Then it started to delay gradually, at least by a week. The second day the flow was normal, but starting from the third and fourth day, there was only a little (the flow has always been light). The color was also very light. It turns out that last year I only had 10 periods.

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be due to empty cold menorrhea or delayed menstruation caused by empty cold. Insufficient nourishment due to blood deficiency, deficiency of Qi and blood in Chong and Ren meridians, emptiness of blood sea after menstruation, combined with Qi deficiency and blood stagnation, leading to impaired blood circulation and resulting in menorrhea. The prescription includes Angelica sinensis, white peony root, and prepared rehmannia to nourish blood and regulate menstruation; safflower, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Curcuma zedoaria, and Cyperus rotundus to activate blood circulation. It is recommended to use modified Weng Jing Decoction for treatment. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects women's lives but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo routine examinations in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
