What are the reasons for menarche seven days earlier?

Patient's question:

Symptom Description: Menstruation occurs 7 days earlier each month.: Pancreatitis, recovered.: Menstruation occurs 7 days earlier, cause.

Doctor's answer:

Factor One: Blood Heat
People with a naturally strong yang constitution, those who excessively consume spicy foods and tonics, or those with emotional depression or chronic blood loss are prone to blood heat. When blood is heated, it becomes erratic and flows more rapidly, leading to early menstruation. The Danzhi Xinfa states: “When menstrual flow arrives before its due date, it is due to blood heat.” Blood heat can be classified as either excess heat, deficiency heat, or heat resulting from liver stagnation.
Factor Two: Qi Deficiency
Those with irregular eating habits or excessive fatigue are most likely to damage their spleen. The spleen is the “manager” of blood, and when the “manager” is weak, the “managed” (blood) tends to “run rampant,” causing early menstruation. As the Jingyue Quanshu: Women’s Regulations says: “If there is no fire in the pulse and symptoms, but the menstrual period arrives early, it is due to deficiency of heart and spleen qi, which cannot hold the blood in place.”
For the treatment of early menstruation, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine are more effective than modern medicine. TCM holds that the principle of treating early menstruation lies in regulating the menstrual cycle to address the root cause. Generally, if the disease occurs first and then leads to early menstruation, the disease should be treated first; once the disease is resolved, the menstrual cycle will naturally regulate itself. If the menstrual cycle is irregular and then leads to illness, the menstrual cycle should be regulated first; once it is regulated, the illness will naturally subside.
