Patient's question:
Patient Gender: Zhang XiaoDetailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: The menstrual blood color has turned dark black with dark blood clots. Is there a problem? This has never happened before since the last menstrual period. It's the first time I've encountered this issue.
Previously, my menstrual period was always delayed by one week each month. For example, in January, it started on the 3rd to 8th, in February, it was on the 8th to 13th, and in March, it began on the 13th. Additionally, I experienced some lower abdominal warmth, discomfort, and bloating. After taking Black-Bone Chicken and White Phoenix Pill, there was some improvement in the middle, and the period did not delay, becoming more regular. It has been about four months since I started taking the pill, and now this condition has appeared.
Doctor's answer:
From this situation, it may be due to blood stasis. Generally, one can take blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispelling traditional Chinese medicine, such as Siwu Decoction plus Leonurus japonicus and Carthamus tinctorius. The occurrence of menstrual irregularity not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal discharge test at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
