Patient's question:
It has been three months, every time there are many, blood routine is only 80, Shanghai Hongfang Hospital,Doctor's answer:
Hello; Excessive menstrual flow is often caused by blood heat, qi deficiency, or blood stasis in many women;Many women experience excessive menstrual flow, which may lead to discomfort such as dizziness, and in some cases, it even affects their normal lives. Both excessive and insufficient menstrual flow are considered menstrual disorders. Menstrual disorders can lead to iron-deficiency anemia and are a common gynecological condition. When menstrual flow is excessive, the first step is to check whether a woman's vaginal discharge is normal. If the discharge is odorless, transparent, or bright white, everything is fine. If the discharge is excessive, creamy, purulent, and has an odor, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly for routine gynecological examinations. The purpose of gynecological examinations is to provide early prevention and treatment for gynecological diseases.
Gynecological examinations are very common and primarily involve checking the condition of the vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, surrounding tissues, and the inner wall of the pelvic cavity. Menstrual disorders can also be caused by functional imbalances, which include two types: ovulatory and anovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding. The former mostly occurs during the reproductive period due to irregular shedding of the endometrium during the luteal phase, while the latter often occurs in the first three years after menstruation begins and during menopause. The reason is that the endometrium has been continuously stimulated by estrogen for a long time, leading to insufficient nutrient supply to the blood vessels and subsequent shedding.
In cases of excessive menstrual flow, blood tests are usually conducted to check for anemia or platelet deficiency, as well as to determine if the bleeding is caused by hypothyroidism. If functional disorders are suspected as the cause of excessive menstrual flow, tests for follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estrogen, prolactin, and progesterone may be performed to identify whether the hormonal imbalance is due to the ovaries or the pituitary gland. Additionally, internal examinations and ultrasound tests can be used to check for conditions such as cervical erosion, uterine fibroids, ovarian tumors, or endometrial hyperplasia. If no organ diseases are detected, natural estrogen can be used to achieve hemostasis. Approximately three days after stopping the medication, menstruation will return to normal.
Some women may also use birth control pills to reduce menstrual flow, despite potential side effects. Deer placenta is a precious animal medicine, derived from the placenta of a deer, and is used to replenish qi, nourish blood, warm the meridians, dispel cold, and promote blood circulation.
