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. Can an uterine fibroid cause dry and itchy skin?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are considered in Traditional Chinese Medicine as the result of phlegm and blood stasis obstructing the uterine cavity. Treatment options include Guizhi Fuling Pill or Xiaojin Pill, or surgical intervention, which is the most definitive approach.If the abdomen is relatively large, there are generally two possible reasons:
1. The fetus is growing larger, which you can completely ignore. A larger baby will naturally result in a larger abdomen.
2. Excessive amniotic fluid. In this case, you should reduce your fluid intake to decrease the production of amniotic fluid.
