Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Why is my period dark?Doctor's answer:
According to the symptoms you mentioned, it is considered to be a manifestation of menstrual disorders caused by blood stasis and blockage. Treatment should focus on promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, and regulating menstruation. You can take modified Taohong Siwu Decoction to maintain a calm mood.In your case, the bleeding may be due to qi deficiency failing to control blood. This is often caused by prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency, leading to qi deficiency. When qi is deficient, it cannot properly regulate the flow of blood, causing it to ooze outside the vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, which in turn fails to hold the blood in place.
It is recommended to use a large dose of Astragalus root decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding.
