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 also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Is it normal to have my period two months after a natural birth?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be due to a cold deficiency with closed menstruation or delayed menstruation caused by blood deficiency and insufficient nourishment. The deficiency of Qi and blood in the Chong and Ren meridians leads to emptiness of the blood sea after menstruation. Combined with Qi deficiency and blood stagnation, there is a lack of power to circulate, which triggers. It is recommended to use Weng Jing Granules for treatment.During pregnancy, avoid drinking coffee: Caffeine in coffee can affect the embryo and bind to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in cells, causing mutations. Pregnant women who frequently drink coffee also face the risk of miscarriage and teratogenesis. In the early stages of pregnancy, women are particularly prone to miscarriage and must pay close attention. They should avoid lifting heavy objects or engaging in intense exercise, and minimize outings. Overexertion should be avoided, with ample rest and sufficient sleep. Sexual activity should also be controlled. When feeling extremely fatigued, avoid bathing and instead rest in bed early.
It is essential to correct poor eating habits and consume foods rich in folic acid regularly, such as spinach, milk, animal liver, potatoes, fruits, and tomatoes. Pregnant women should eat nutrient-rich, easily digestible foods that are high in protein, vitamins, calcium, iron, and other nutrients, such as eggs, lean meat, soy products, fresh fish, peanuts, and fresh vegetables.
