Patient's question:
My last menstrual period was on the 5th. Now I have blood in my leukorrhea, which has lasted for a week. Although it's not much, every time I use toilet paper to wipe, there's red, and there's also red on the pad. What could be the reason? I am 44 years old.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it may be caused by spleen qi deficiency. The spleen governs the transformation and distribution of blood, and when the spleen is weak, it cannot properly control the blood, leading to abnormal bleeding. In this case, you can take measures to strengthen the spleen and invigorate qi for regulation. It is recommended to visit the Traditional Chinese Medicine department of a hospital for a definitive diagnosis. Once diagnosed, you can take herbal medications such as Gui Pi Wan for a period of time. It is advised to continue monitoring, maintain hygiene, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and enhance nutrition. However, if the condition persists for a long time without improvement, it is recommended to seek medical attention for further examination and treatment.
