Normal menstruation is a sign of the physical health of every mature woman, while abnormal menstruation is a reminder of where your body may be experiencing problems. In real life, there are many women with irregular menstruation, most of whom are caused by gynecological diseases or poor lifestyle habits. So, how can women know if they have menstrual irregularities? Let's take a look together.
How do women self diagnose menstrual irregularities?
1. Early menstruation. Generally speaking, the phenomenon of having a menstrual cycle earlier than the normal date is generally considered as having an earlier period of more than 10 days.
2. Delayed menstruation. If the menstrual cycle exceeds 35 days and takes longer to menstruate, it is continuously extended for 3 cycles, which is called delayed menstruation, except for pregnancy.
3. Excessive menstrual flow. The menstrual cycle is basically normal, but the menstrual blood volume is low, with less than 30 milliliters or drops each time, and the menstrual cycle is irregular.
4. Excessive menstrual flow. When the menstrual cycle is basically normal, there is a significant increase in menstrual blood volume, usually above 50 milliliters for more than 7 days, which is a symptom of excessive menstrual flow. Excessive menstrual flow is also a type of menstrual irregularities.
What are the reasons for irregular menstruation?
1、 High pressure. Women of childbearing age are exposed to excessive stress for a long time, which suppresses pituitary function, prevents the ovaries from secreting female hormones, prevents ovulation, and causes menstrual disorders. Therefore, women should release their stress appropriately, listen to soothing songs, exercise appropriately to ease their emotions, and avoid being in a state of excessive stress for a long time.
2、 Too greedy. Some women enjoy drinking cold drinks and eating cold food on physiological days, contracting blood vessels in the pelvis, abnormal ovarian function, low menstrual flow, and amenorrhea. Therefore, during menstruation, it is important to remember to keep warm, avoid being too cold, and avoid eating cold drinks to maintain normal menstrual flow.
3、 Constipation. Constipation is also one of the reasons for irregular menstruation in women. If feces accumulate in the body, the cervix will move forward and the body will move back. This situation occurs for a long time, with back pain and irregular menstruation. To improve constipation, it is necessary to eat more fruits and vegetables in daily life, increase the amount of vitamin C in the body, and accelerate intestinal peristalsis, enabling normal bowel movements.
5. Due to drug abuse. Overuse or excessive use of antibiotics in daily life can easily cause disorders in the body's functions, ultimately leading to menstrual irregularities. Generally, women should take antibiotics under the guidance of a doctor and follow the course of treatment.
