Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Also, what should I do if there is still some blood flow after my period?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 circulation, causing blood to overflow outside the vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that fails to hold the blood.It is recommended to take a large dose of Astragalus root decoction to boost qi and stop bleeding. During pregnancy, changes in vaginal pH can easily lead to candidal vulvovaginitis, which should be treated promptly to prevent the infection from spreading upwards to the fetus. A solution of sodium bicarbonate and Keflin vaginal suppositories are recommended for treatment. Underwear and pants should be disinfected and exposed to sunlight.
