Patient: Madam Kok (Female) Age42 <\/span><\/strong>
\nDate\uff1a15 May 2021<\/span><\/strong>
\nMain problem: Menstrual disorder (Menorrhagia & Metrorrhagia) for 3 months.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>
\nMadam Kok happened to visit the clinic since the first consultation on 14-01-2021 regarding extended period and less bleeding during menstruation period. Revisited once, and never follow up then.<\/span>
\n
\nToday, once she steps into the room, she hastens to ask: \u201cTCM Dr, please help me! The menstrual disorder issue had been happening since February till today.\u201d<\/span>
\n
\nI reply: \u201cPlease elaborate.\u201d<\/span>
\n
\nMadam Kok tells: \u201cI have had the saffron-mixture herbal soup for 5 times. Then the menstrual disorder issue kick-started, and bleeding never stopped for the past 3 months.\u201d<\/span>
\n
\nI ask: \u201cMay I know what is your main problem now?\u201d<\/span>
\n
\nMadam Kok replies: \u201cI have a speeded-up heartbeat and headache on the right side especially if the temperature raise high. During night hours I feel uncomfortable with wind and cold.\u201d
\n\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

This patient\u2019s face looks as pale as white paper. I have read the medicine books indicating the pale face, but i never imagine i could see the most \u201cwhite-pale\u201d face in my life. As the menstrual disorder had been haunting her for past 3 months, i really empathize her problem because she looks miserable and heavy-hearted as she also worries whence this problem is going to stop. Due to over bleeding cum blood clots releasing for the past 3 months, her body is extremely weak. Last week, she taken \u201cBat Kut The\u201d herbal soup, then the blood volume increased right after the meal. Last night, she encountered unusual perspiration after she drunk the ginger soup. Both symptoms indicating us that her body is too weak by now.<\/span>
\n
\nMy advise:<\/strong>I prescribed herbal medicine for her and asked her to revisit 2 days later. Besides, I asked her to prepare fried ginger which sliced into small pieces, and must fried until dark burnt color, mix with water, and drink it. If the body cannot stand it, as this might be too heaty for the body, she must drink much water. If she constipates, then she must stop consuming it.<\/span>
