Chapter 460 Symptoms Before and After Menopause (Perimenopause Syndrome)
Li San Niang wrote out a prescription and said to Li Niang, "I will also write a prescription to regulate qi and blood, which we can use later."
My lady is only eighteen; she has many wonderful days ahead of her, so she should cherish herself.
"Oh, thank you so much, female doctor."
Li Niang, the female doctor is absolutely right!
"Let's go home, Mom will make you some chicken soup."
Liniang and her daughter took the prescription from Li Sanniang and went straight to the medicine cabinet to get the medicine.
Li San Niang then called out the number of the next person who came for a consultation.
No one paid any attention to the old woman who was still standing there. She looked like a wilted eggplant, her face drooping, and her wrinkles had deepened considerably.
The old woman glanced at Li Niang, who was waiting to get her medicine by the medicine cabinet, and turned away dejectedly.
Seeing that the parties involved had all left, the others in the clinic stopped watching the drama unfold and went about their own business.
However, I imagine that after they leave the clinic today, they will probably all talk about this with people they know.
After all, the common people have relatively few entertainment options, and listening to gossip about other people's lives is the most convenient and economical form of entertainment.
At that time, it will be hard to say whether more people will think that Li Niang did the right thing, or that more people will think that Li Niang was heartless and caused someone to be cut off from their family line.
However, all of this is no longer relevant to Li San Niang.
Li San Niang then turned to the woman in front of her and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
A woman with a silver hairpin in her hair, dressed very neatly and cleanly, replied to Li San Niang: "Doctor Li, I have been feeling very hot and humid lately."
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be hot yet; I'm the only one in my family who feels hot.
"Oh dear, look at me! I was standing there watching this whole thing from the doorway, and now that I've sat down, I'm drenched in sweat."
Li San Niang took a look and it was true. Although the weather had warmed up after the Dragon Boat Festival, it was still not time to sweat.
"I've always been a good-tempered person, but lately, I've found myself finding fault with everything at home."
Nothing is going right. The food is bland, the water is too hot, and the insects in the yard are chirping. Everything is making me feel irritable.
At first, I didn't realize it myself; it was only when my mother-in-law came to visit with her child that I realized something was wrong.
Behind the woman, a younger woman, also wearing a silver hairpin, nodded to the woman who was looking over, then looked at Li San Niang and said, "Female doctor, is my mother's condition a common ailment that women of this age often suffer from?"
Seeing Li San Niang's surprise, the young woman explained directly, "Oh dear, my mother-in-law was about the same age as my mother a few years ago, and her temper has changed. She used to argue with my father-in-law over the smallest things."
At first, no one noticed anything wrong. Later, an auntie on the street pointed it out, and my mother-in-law went to see a doctor. The doctor said that this was common for women of that age.
They prescribed medicine for me to take at home, and within half a month, my mother-in-law calmed down.
Therefore, when I went back to my parents' home and saw my mother like this, I thought, "Is this the kind of illness that comes with age?"
However, female doctor, my mother is different from my mother-in-law. My mother is very afraid of the heat now and can't sleep well at night.
How can a person who can't sleep well get by?
"Please have the female doctor examine me; whether medication or dietary supplements are appropriate is fine."
After listening to and observing the actions of the mother and daughter, Li San Niang knew that they must be from a moderately wealthy family, a family that was rich enough to afford meat.
Otherwise, how could a woman with such symptoms possibly be willing to spend money to see a doctor?
Most people who come to see a doctor are those whose symptoms are so severe that they can no longer bear it, and that's when they finally bring their money to the doctor.
After Li San Niang asked, sure enough, the young woman said that her father was a teacher at an academy.
After hearing what the two said, Li San Niang inquired in detail about the woman's diet and sleep, with a focus on her menstrual cycle.
"Are you still menstruating now?"
When was the most recent one?
What about the quantity?
Do you experience lower abdominal pain during your period?
The woman wasn't embarrassed at all, because she had already made some guesses before coming. When Li San Niang asked her questions, she knew what was going on and answered them one by one.
"Let me see your hand."
"Disorders of the Chong and Ren meridians lead to a lack of warmth in the internal organs, resulting in kidney yang deficiency and ultimately causing various symptoms around menopause." (This sentence is from the internet.)
Li Sanniang looked at the woman and said, "Come in, let me examine you by palpation."
Although the mother and daughter were surprised, they still got up and followed Qiu Xiang into the inner room. After washing her hands, Li San Niang rubbed them together to warm them, and with the woman's consent, she touched her belly.
At the same time, use X-ray vision to check for any abnormalities in the ovaries, uterus, and other uterine appendages.
After confirming that it was simply a problem caused by hormonal changes due to age, Li San Niang said to the two of them, "It's not a big problem; you realized it early."
It's just that he's reached a certain age; I'll prescribe some medicine for him.
However, besides taking medication, it's also good to keep yourself occupied.
The woman felt that it was a good thing she had listened to her mother-in-law and come to see the female doctor. Look, the female doctor not only took her pulse and asked her questions in a kind and gentle manner, but also checked her body to see if there was anything wrong with her.
They're still saying nice things to me right now, telling me to find something to do myself.
"Okay, we'll do whatever the female doctor says."
I do enjoy tinkering with flowers and plants; it would be a good thing to find solace in them in the future.
Li San Niang smiled and nodded, handing over the prescription.
Li San Niang turned her head and whispered to Qiu Xiang, "Qiu Xiang, don't you think it would be wonderful if all patients were this obedient in the future?"
Trusting the doctor and following their instructions—if everyone works together towards the same goal, what ailment can't be cured?
When Qiu Xiang heard this, she thought that Li San Niang was referring to the trouble caused by Li Niang and the others who came to see her last, so she replied, "San Niangzi, there are thousands of different kinds of people, how can they all be the same?"
Look at that old woman from the Guo family, she's pitiful, but isn't Liniang pitiful too?
If you ask me, if anyone were lying to me, I'd probably call them out on the spot.
Li San Niang shook her head, not quite agreeing with Qiu Xiang's words.
"You, well, you're capable and confident."
If you find Lang Xu in the future and he deceives you, I believe you will not only be able to fight back and vent your anger, but also protect yourself afterwards.
Keli Niang was just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. She was deceived by the matchmaker and married a sickly young man. Since she was already married, if she really wanted to leave, she should have made a decision sooner.
Perhaps the Guo family treated her well, or perhaps Guo Lang was a considerate person, which made her feel that she could still make a living, so she stayed.
In the end, Guo Lang still passed away.
This is Liniang's choice.
She should have been prepared to be a widow from the very beginning when she learned that her husband was sickly.
Qiu Xiang thought for a moment, "Third Sister, now that you say so, it seems that Liniang is in the wrong?"
"That's definitely not it."
Li San Niang shook her head, denying Qiu Xiang's words.
"It's just that the world doesn't allow a woman to break off an engagement. In the very beginning, it was the Guo family who set this up to deceive people into having children and insisted on getting a wife for their sickly son. Just like that woman said, the Guo family really didn't have good intentions."
One wrong step and the whole game is lost.
Having reached this point, and now widowed, Liniang's desire to sever all ties with her ex-husband and find a good man to spend the rest of her life with is perfectly understandable.
But listen to what that old woman and the people around her are saying; many of them are criticizing Li Niang for not leaving a bloodline for the Guo family.
But they're just talking without understanding the situation.
If you really wanted them to contribute money and effort, they would have disappeared long ago.
So what I'm saying is that when a woman marries, it's like being reincarnated for the second time, and it really needs to be carefully considered before it can be done.
"The future husband of Dewdrop must be a healthy and responsible man."
"Haha," Qiu Xiang laughed when she heard Li San Niang mention Dewdrop. "Oh, so San Niangzi was thinking about Dewdrop."
"Dewdrop is only three years old, isn't Third Sister worrying too much?"
"Having a young daughter to raise means a lot of worries."
