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. Is there a relationship between high levels of lipoprotein(a) and menopause?Doctor's answer:
What you described may be hyperlipidemia, which is a problem with fat metabolism. It is recommended to maintain a regular and light diet, avoiding greasy, spicy, high-fat, and high-protein foods. You can use lotus leaf decoction for consumption. Your condition may be related to the menopausal syndrome of visceral restlessness. The occurrence of this disease is related to the patient's constitutional factors. Visceral restlessness refers to insufficient yin in the viscera. Deficiency of essence and blood leads to the lack of nourishment for the five viscera, causing internal agitation of the five emotions' fire, which disturbs the heart and mind, leading to visceral restlessness.Ganmai Dazao Decoction (Sweet Millet, Wheat, and Jujube Decoction) can be modified and used for treatment, which may be effective.
