Patient's question:
After spontaneous abortion 31 days ago, bleeding started. I initially suspected it was my period, but after three days, it was almost every day with only one or two drops of blood, and it was dark brown. What could be the reason? (I had candidiasis vaginitis during pregnancy, which has not yet healed). Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your condition, it cannot be diagnosed yet. During the mid-cycle, which is the ovulation period, estrogen levels temporarily decline, causing the endometrium to lose hormonal support and partially shed, leading to regular vaginal bleeding, known as ovulatory bleeding. In traditional Chinese medicine, this is referred to as "intermenstrual bleeding."Treatment>
1. Western medicine treatment: Diethylstilbestrol 0.25–0.5 mg per day, starting 3 days before ovulation and stopping 2–3 days after the bleeding stops.
2. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment: Liuwei Dihuang Wan, Gujing Wan, and Xuefu Zhuyu Wan.
Prevention and Care>
1. Pay attention to menstrual and postpartum health care, maintain external genital hygiene, and prevent pelvic infection.
2. Keep a calm mood and avoid excessive stress.
