TCM treatment for gynaecological diseases--irregular menstruation.

Menstruation is the periodic shedding (usually monthly) of the lining of the womb. Generally speaking, menstruation starts during puberty around 10–16 years old and continues until the menopause about 45–55 years old. An average menstrual cycle is about 28 days, but it may vary between 24–35 days. According to a study most women have more than 500 periods in a lifetime. Any abnormality of the above menstrual conditions can be regarded as irregular.
