Patient's question:
I got my last period on the 5th, but it hasn't arrived yet this month.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 the meantime, eat more foods that boost qi and blood, or try traditional Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation, such as angelica sinensis (dang gui), astragalus (huang qi), and motherwort (yi mu cao). Drink plenty of water, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to a balanced diet, and exercise more.
Wishing you good health.
