Introduction
Women experiencing menstrual irregularities, such as scanty menstrual flow or early or delayed menstruation, may benefit from taking Ejiao Lushen Tablets for their menstrual health. However, if the menstrual flow is already heavy, Ejiao Lushen Tablets may not be beneficial. It is recommended to take Ejiao Lushen Tablets appropriately before or during menstruation to achieve nourishing effects. If menstrual bleeding is excessively heavy or lasts too long, it is advised to discontinue use temporarily to avoid worsening symptoms.

Women with irregular menstruation, light menstrual flow, or early or delayed periods may benefit from using Ejiao Lushen Tablets for their menstruation; however, if the menstrual flow is already heavy, Ejiao Lushen Tablets may not be beneficial for menstruation. The analysis is as follows:

The main ingredients of Ejiao Lushen Tablets include Ejiao (donkey-hide gelatin), deer antler, and red ginseng, all of which have the effect of nourishing and invigorating blood. For women with irregular menstruation, light menstrual flow, or early or delayed periods—especially those whose menstrual problems are caused by blood and qi deficiency or kidney weakness—Ejiao Lushen Tablets can play a certain regulatory role. By nourishing and enriching the blood, improving blood and qi circulation, these tablets may help regulate the menstrual cycle and restore normal menstrual flow.

However, if the menstrual flow is already heavy, or if the body constitution is inclined to heat or yin deficiency with fire hyperactivity, the blood-nourishing ingredients in Ejiao Lushen Tablets may further increase menstrual flow, leading to prolonged bleeding. In addition, Ejiao has a certain hemostatic effect; excessive intake during menstruation may also affect normal menstrual discharge.

It is recommended to take Ejiao Lushen Tablets in moderation before or during menstruation to achieve nourishing effects. If menstrual flow is excessively heavy or lasts too long, it is advisable to discontinue use temporarily to avoid worsening symptoms.
