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. Could you please tell me which medications can stop irregular menstruation?Doctor's answer:
In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood, often resulting from prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is weak, it cannot properly regulate blood flow, causing blood to overflow outside the vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that fails to hold blood.It is recommended to take a large dose of Astragalus decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding. This condition might also be due to phlegm nodules or sebaceous gland inflammation caused by internal heat. First and foremost, maintaining good hygiene is essential, while also avoiding scratching and other irritations.
Patients should try to minimize the intake of spicy, irritating foods and animal fats, while increasing consumption of vegetables and fruits. Additionally, maintaining daily bowel movements is important.
