My period is six days late.

In life, delayed menstruation is a very common phenomenon among women, especially for some women with irregular menstruation. They not only experience delayed menstruation, but also early menstruation. In fact, delayed menstruation once or twice is not serious, and it is okay if the delay is not too long. So is it serious if the menstruation is delayed for six days?

Will taking Chinese medicine to regulate menstruation delay menstruation?

Relevant people said that under normal circumstances, it would happen, because taking Chinese medicine will cause various conditions of the body to be different from before, so it is normal to have delayed menstruation. As long as it is about a week, there will be no problem.

Should there be any particular precautions when taking Chinese medicine during menstruation? In response to this question, the doctor's answer is that there is nothing wrong with taking Chinese medicine during menstruation, but it should be noted that some blood-activating and collateral-activating drugs are best not used during menstruation. After taking some cooling drugs, it is also best to warm your stomach yourself to avoid causing uterine cold.

According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, taking Chinese medicine (ginseng, angelica, etc.) and stewing chicken during menstruation has two main effects: nourishing blood and replenishing qi. This method of dietary supplement is more suitable for people with irregular menstruation, excessive blood loss, weak body, fatigue and weakness.

However, it should be pointed out that it is best to eat angelica after the menstrual period, because angelica has the effect of activating blood circulation and may increase the amount of blood loss during menstruation.

As for some people who experience a decrease in menstrual volume after taking chicken stewed with Chinese medicine during their menstrual period, it may be due to its effect of replenishing qi and stopping bleeding. If the menstrual volume decreases due to taking chicken stewed with Chinese medicine during menstruation, you can stop taking it.

If your menstrual flow is still too light for a long time after you stop taking the medicine, you need to see a doctor to see if there are other reasons for the reduced menstrual flow.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that if Chinese medicine includes drugs that promote blood circulation and unblock meridians, they should not be used during menstruation. If it is not this type of medicine, it can often still be used during menstruation. For example, traditional Chinese medicine for treating colds and getting angry generally has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, and is cool in nature, so it may cause uterine cold and trigger abdominal pain. But the impact is not significant, so you don't need to worry. Warm it with a hot water bottle and drink more brown sugar water to relieve the symptoms.
