Patient's question:
On the first day of my period, my stomach hurts, feels a bit nauseous, and dizzy for a while. It got better by the second day. Haven't gone to the hospital yet.Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that pain arises from blockage, and blockage leads to pain. For the treatment of menstrual pain, (blood-activating and blood-stasis-resolving) Chinese herbal medicine can generally be considered. Commonly used herbal formulas include Siwu Decoction, while prepared medicines such as Compound Motherwort Ointment or Monthly Comfort Granules can be taken for regulation. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects the patient's health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, dietary regulation should be paid attention to, with a focus on light and easily digestible foods. Spicy, irritating, and cold foods should be avoided.
