Women’s good friend – menstruation, is a normal physiological phenomenon, and also a sign of whether a woman is healthy or not. Normal menstruation represents the standard of women’s health. Irregular menstruation is a problem that many women will encounter, causing serious impacts on the body. Due to work pressure, family factors, etc., many women experience situations of low menstrual flow. Although it is not a major illness, it is often overlooked, which can lead to organic lesions over time. Therefore, if menstrual flow is low, it is important to take care of it promptly. Traditional Chinese medicine recommends three types of foods to regulate low menstrual flow.
Insufficient menstruation should not be ignored, as it may lead to amenorrhea. Once amenorrhea sets in, fertility is no longer possible. For such patients, they can take Angelica sinensis boiled with eggs. Take 9 grams of Angelica sinensis each time, add water and decoct, then filter out the residue from the medicinal juice with gauze, break two eggs into the medicinal juice, continue cooking on low heat for a while, cover and simmer. When the eggs are simmered like poached eggs, add 50 grams of brown sugar to season. Then eat the eggs and drink the juice, making sure to wait until menstruation is clean before consuming. Angelica sinensis has extensive applications in traditional gynecological prescriptions with the saying “ten formulas and nine angelicas,” showing the widespread use of Angelica sinensis. It is especially beneficial for women!
Known as the “black pearl” due to its rich nutritional and medicinal value, it is highly acclaimed for its richness. Generally speaking, the nutritional value of black glutinous rice is much higher than that of white glutinous rice. Black glutinous rice helps nourish women postpartum, promotes the increase of breast milk for breastfeeding infants. For women with low menstrual flow, cooking porridge with additions like red dates can gradually alleviate the condition. Black glutinous rice not only has a good nourishing and regulating effect on low menstrual flow but also serves as a good nutritional supplement for patients with chronic diseases, recovery patients, and those with weak constitutions.
Take 1 kilogram of lean mutton, cut it into pieces, and add 60 grams of fresh ginger into a hot pan to briefly stir-fry. Then add the mutton pieces and stir-fry until the blood is dried up. Add an appropriate amount of water, put in 100 grams of Angelica sinensis (wrapped in gauze), season with salt, and stew until cooked over low heat. It has the effects of warming the middle, nourishing blood, regulating menstruation, and dispelling wind. It can treat women with irregular menstruation, deficient blood flow, blood deficiency leading to menstrual blockages, dysmenorrhea, and menstrual headaches.
One of the standards for women’s health is that “menstruation” should be regular! Whether a woman’s menstruation is normal is not just about the cycle but also about the quantity of menstrual flow. Excessive or insufficient menstrual flow is not normal. Therefore, if women experience situations of insufficient menstrual flow, it is important to regulate it in a timely manner. The 3 dietary therapies mentioned above are very effective, and hopefully, today’s content will be helpful to everyone!
