Experts say that women's monthly menstruation is not simply abnormal uterine bleeding. Abnormal uterine bleeding occurs when the female hormones, estrogen, and endometrial thickness in women's bodies reach a certain level. Most of the Chinese herbal medicines for regulating menstruation have the effects of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, promoting qi, and nourishing the kidney and strengthening yang, such as Notopterygium wilfordii, Chuanxiong, rose, Trillium, peach kernel, etc. In addition to regulating menstruation, this kind of medicine can also improve blood circulation, improve women's sallow complexion, and reduce pigmentation.

From a certain perspective, menstrual regulating drugs do have certain cosmetic effects, but these cosmetic effects are based on the fact that patients already have irregular menstruation, which in turn causes a series of symptoms, such as sallow complexion, pigmentation, and acne. In other words, whether a person's skin is shiny and nourished is closely related to whether the internal organs are healthy.

Experts remind that menstrual blood is usually dark red because menstruation is dominated by venous blood. The amount of menstrual flow varies from person to person. If you do not feel any discomfort or it does not affect pregnancy, there is no need to take medicine frequently to adjust it. If the menstrual flow is only slightly less and there are usually no discomfort symptoms, eating more copper-rich foods, such as beef, jujube, black sesame powder, fungus, etc., can also help improve the menstrual flow.

If you feel some discomfort, it is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant examinations and take some menstrual regulating drugs (such as Fuke Qianjin Tablets) under the guidance of a doctor. Regulating menstruation should be carried out on the basis of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Regulating menstruation is a tough battle. It is best to take the medicine consistently for more than half a year, and then gradually reduce the dosage until you stop taking it.

Menstrual irregularities include excessive or insufficient menstrual flow, irregular cycles, etc. Patients need to take menstrual regulating drugs according to their conditions and should not take them casually. Women with excessive menstrual flow need to take medicines to nourish the kidneys, strengthen yang and invigorate the spleen to achieve the effect of consolidating blood. If they take blood-activating, blood-stasis-removing and qi-regulating medicines, it will increase the menstrual flow. Irregular menstruation caused by poor Qi circulation needs to be treated with liver-soothing and depression-relieving medicines, such as Jiawei Xiaoyao Pills.

Women with too little menstrual flow can take blood-activating, blood-stasis-removing and qi-promoting drugs to increase menstrual flow. If women over 40 have scanty menstruation, they can take some medicines that can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, promote qi circulation, and nourish the kidneys before menstruation under the guidance of a doctor.
