Irritability, menstrual pain, bleeding when more or less, menstruation when late or early …… menstruation is every woman’s “best friend”, but “best friend” visit a few days, but also women are quite troublesome days! The first thing you need to do is to get rid of all the stuff you have to do. The woman should endure these “women’s disease” silently? Experts point out that irregular menstruation can be alleviated by adjusting, if ignored there may be serious consequences. The four standards of menstrual regularity “To determine whether menstruation is regular or not, it is necessary to observe from the four aspects of ‘period, quantity, color and quality’.” First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, deputy director of gynecology two Zeng Cheng, chief physician, told reporters that the normal menstrual cycle “period” for 28-30 days, a menstrual “period” for 3-7 days; a menstrual cycle of total bleeding “The total amount of bleeding in a menstrual cycle should be 30-80 milliliters; the “color” is bright red; the “quality” needs to be free of blood clots and odor. If the amount of menstrual bleeding and menstrual cycle are abnormal, or even accompanied by symptoms such as vague pain in the lower abdomen, breast swelling and pain, lumbago, headache, mood swings, etc., then it is considered menstrual irregularity. Menstrual Irregularity Q&A Symptom 1 Abnormal menstrual bleeding Q: How should I measure my menstrual flow? A: “A sanitary napkin can help.” Director Zeng Cheng said that a sanitary napkin can hold 15 milliliters when it is completely wet, so it is normal to wet 2-6 sanitary napkins in a cycle. If you have to change four or five times a day, each piece of sanitary napkin is wet, blood flow, it belongs to the excessive bleeding; on the contrary, each menstruation two days to clean, drip that is, or even just use the pads can be, it is too little bleeding. Recipe: First of all, we should exclude organic and functional diseases, such as bleeding may be uterine fibroids, cervicitis, cervicitis and other gynecological diseases, bleeding may be associated with infections, abortion surgery, ovarian function also has an impact on the amount of bleeding. After ruling out organic diseases, dietary supplements can be used to regulate. When bleeding is heavy, during menstruation, you can eat Codonopsis, Astragalus, Motherwort to benefit the qi, lift up and stop bleeding; when bleeding is heavy and leads to fatigue and weakness, after menstruation, you can eat Wuji Baifeng Pills and Colla Corii Asini to replenish your body; when bleeding is light, during menstruation, you can use Angelica, Salviae Sinensis, and Chickens Blood Vine to help generate blood in the soup, and after menstruation, you can eat more qi and blood nourishment, such as jujubes, collagen, Radix Rehmanniae Praeparata and Polygonum Multiflori. Symptom 2 Abnormal menstrual cycle or period Q: What is considered abnormal menstrual cycle or period? What are the symptoms? A: Menstrual cycle refers to the interval between the first day of menstruation and the first day of the next menstruation. Menstruation that is more than 7 days early or late and long periods are considered abnormal. Those with early menstruation are mostly young people who show more heat, more blood, blood clots, dizziness, and some of them are accompanied by menstrual pain; those with delayed menstruation are mostly obese, hairy, acne-prone, and have high mood swings and nervousness. “When over-obesity, ovarian function will decline, leading to sparse ovulation or even no ovulation, which will affect fertility.” Director Zeng Cheng said. As for those who have long periods, they may be affected by ovarian dysfunction, but sometimes it is not menstruation, but bleeding caused by cervical lesions or abnormal bleeding brought about by fibroids and polyps. Regulating recipe: early menstruation is mostly solid heat body, usually eat less fried, barbecue food, can eat maitake, leucaena leucocephala, motherwort regulation; delayed menstruation need to maintain emotional calm, reasonable control of diet, appropriate exercise, weight control, but does not advocate relying on diet pills to lose weight. “People with normal cycles do not advocate self-medication to delay menstruation. Drugs, in addition to identifying the body, but also according to the rhythm of the menstrual cycle, such as premenstrual to ease the main, menstrual period to activate the blood, postmenstrual to nourish the blood and tonify the kidneys, and ovulation should be yin and yang with the same adjustment.” In addition, Director Zeng Cheng suggested that women of childbearing age is best to do a physical examination once a year, in the non-menstrual period can do gynecological ultrasound, menstrual abnormalities this can be between 2-5 days of menstruation can be done to check the endocrine hormones. Symptom three blood clots, odor Q: blood clots and odor is a normal physiological phenomenon or disease? A: When lying down due to the absence of gravity, menstrual blood gathers in the vagina and forms clots through the clotting mechanism, which are discharged in the morning when you first get up. “But only when the menstrual flow is heavy or there is blood stasis in the body will there be blood clots, blood clots or even accompanied by stabbing pain, swelling and pain, are pathological.” In addition, Director Zeng Cheng pointed out that normal menstruation has no odor, and odor indicates inflammation and the need to find a doctor to do relevant examinations. Regulating recipe: the appearance of blood clots, available to activate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis of traditional Chinese medicine to regulate, in the non-menstrual period can be consumed danshen, Tianqi, motherwort and so on. Odor originates from inflammation, which is considered by Chinese medicine practitioners to be due to “dampness and heat”. Therefore, you should pay attention to a light diet, pay attention to hygiene, change sanitary napkins frequently, and do not have coitus when there is bleeding, and those with inflammation should not have a tub bath or take a bath or they will be easily infected. Symptom 4 Dysmenorrhea Q: Is dysmenorrhea for everyone? A: “Excluding endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease and other organic diseases, usually ‘blood stasis quality’ and ‘tension quality’ people are more prone to dysmenorrhea.” According to Director Zeng Cheng, pain occurs when there is blood stasis in the body and blood drainage is not smooth. In addition, dysmenorrhea is also caused by mental psychology, the more fear and tension, the more sensitive to pain. Recipe: Director Zeng Cheng suggests that when menstruation comes, remember to relax and do not be too nervous. Cold is not conducive to the elimination of menstrual blood, blood stasis pain, so we must do a good job of keeping warm, can be used to warm the bag on the abdomen, should not get wet, should not eat cold food; in addition, should not be strenuous exercise, otherwise easy to make the menstrual blood discharged poorly, reflux into the pelvic cavity, causing pain.
