Dr. He Haochen
Women with heavy menstrual bleeding should avoid using Sanfu patches, as they are more prone to menstrual cramps and dysmenorrhea compared to women with normal menstrual flow. Since Sanfu patches are intended to regulate menstruation, using them may instead exacerbate symptoms such as menstrual cramps and even lead to serious complications. Therefore, women with heavy menstrual bleeding should not use Sanfu patches. In addition to avoiding Sanfu patches, women with heavy periods should pay attention to other aspects, such as consuming more vitamin-rich foods like vegetables and fruits, which can help regulate their menstrual cycle.
