Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Do I still need to take progesterone after it stops bleeding?Doctor's answer:
In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood. This is often due to prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is weak, it cannot properly regulate blood circulation, causing blood to overflow from vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, resulting in qi deficiency that fails to hold blood.It is recommended to take a large dose of astragalus decoction to boost qi and stop bleeding. If you have had sexual intercourse without contraception, pregnancy is possible, as some semen may enter the vagina. There is still a possibility of pregnancy in your case. You can take a pregnancy test about 15 days after intercourse.
