\nMain Problem\uff1aMenstruation has extended for few months.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

When this young lady walks into the room, she looks slim and weak. Her face looks pale. I guess she is anaemia type. Miss Tan tells: \u201cHi TCM Doctor, my problem is menstruation has extended for few months.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

I ask: \u201cHow many months?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Miss Tan replies: \u201cIt stopped since so long ago; I did not record so I could not remember the exact date.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The patient\u2019s main issue is extended menstruation period for few months. She did not experience period stomach ache since young. Not much leucorrhea. She likes picky to food, take more meat than vegetable. Occasionally, she has irregular meal. For instance, she hardly takes breakfast in the morning. In additional, she is a fresh graduate, and having a transition period to adapt to the new working environment, so she is having some anxiety. The anxiety emotion has affecting the digestive system and causing a weakening functional system of the stomach.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since young, the patient has a problem of indigestion, and always be sensitive to dairy products. Whenever she takes milk, she will get a diarrhea\uff1b heated milk will cause a stomachache. After meal, she will give a loud belch. She seldom drinks water. But she likes ice water and drinks it twice a week. Her lifestyle is like the contemporary youngster society. She weak up early and sleep early only during working days, but during the weekend she will sleep later than twelve o\u2019clock, and wake up later than ten o\u2019clock.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since she is young, like others, girls love pretty. She observed there are some dark color speckles appearing on the skin. She is eager to know if by giving the treatment to the menstruation, whether it will helps to reduce the speckles.
