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 why my period suddenly stopped?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this situation is considered as menstrual irregularity, which is often related to emotions, stress, medication, or endocrine disorders. It may also be due to insufficient sleep. You can take Wuji Baifeng Pills or Chinese herbal medicine for regulation. If necessary, you may undergo an endocrine six-item check and receive hormone therapy for artificial cycles.Your condition may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood, leading to bleeding. This is often due to prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency, which results in qi deficiency. When qi deficiency fails to regulate blood flow, it causes blood to overflow outside the vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that cannot hold blood.
It is recommended to use a large dose of Huangqi (Astragalus) decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding.
