Three and a half months after giving birth, I've had two periods. This time, it's been more than half a month.

Patient's question:

Three and a half months after giving birth, I have had my period twice. This time, it has been more than half a month since my last period. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation has many causes, which are typically classified into two major categories in clinical practice: one is functional, such as irregular menstruation caused by endocrine dysfunction; the other is organic, such as conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and endometriosis, which can also lead to irregular menstruation.
Go to the hospital for a check-up and take medication accordingly. In your daily diet, consume more foods that boost qi and blood, or traditional Chinese medicine herbs that regulate menstruation, such as angelica sinensis (Dang Gui), astragalus (Huang Qi), and Leonurus cardiaca (Yi Mu Cao). Drink plenty of water, eat less spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to a balanced diet, and exercise more.
Wishing you good health.
