Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: My previous menstrual cycles were relatively normal, around 30 days apart. But this time, my period has been 45 days late. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation can be managed by consuming more fruits such as melons (watermelon, small melon, muskmelon, cantaloupe), oranges, pears, tomatoes, coconuts, starfruit, grapefruits, lychees, mangoes, bananas, and longans. Vegetables include radishes, amaranth, Chinese cabbage, bitter gourds, etc. These vegetables are often cooked with ingredients like scallions, garlic, ginger, and fermented soybeans, which reduce their cold properties. Therefore, the aforementioned vegetables can be consumed.
