What are the reasons for menstrual irregularities? Inventory the external manifestations of menstrual irregularities
Irregular menstruation is a common phenomenon and has a serious impact on female patients. It should also be taken seriously in daily life. There are many factors caused by irregular menstruation, and besides some diseases, it is also closely related to daily habits. Let's understand together.
Symptoms of menstrual irregularities
1. Menstrual blood color
Normal blood is dark red, mixed with shedding small fragments of endometrium, cervical mucus, and vaginal epithelial cells, without blood clots. If the menstrual blood is as thin as water, with only a hint of pink or dark purple hair, it is abnormal. If the menstrual blood is completely clotted and abnormal, there may be other bleeding areas, and early medical attention should be sought to ensure physical health.
2. Premature menstruation
Premature menstruation refers to a shortened menstrual cycle, shorter than 21 days, with more than 2 consecutive cycles. It belongs to the ovulation type of dysfunctional uterine bleeding foundation, and menstrual disorders are bipolar. The follicular phase is short, only 7-8 days, or the luteal phase is shorter than 10 days, or the body temperature rises by less than 0.5 ℃.
3. Prolonged menstrual period
Normal menstrual period, normal menstrual period, but prolonged menstrual period, exceeding 7 days, or even 2 weeks of cleaning. People with inflammation usually have lower abdominal pain, which worsens during physiological days. They usually have a large amount of vaginal discharge, a yellow white color, a strong texture, and a taste. Patients with corpus luteum atrophy and prolonged endometrial repair with excessive menstrual flow still experience a small amount of persistent vaginal bleeding after normal menstrual periods.
4. Menstrual blood volume
The menstrual volume of women varies from person to person, generally ranging from 20 to 100 milliliters. Generally speaking, it is normal to replace sanitary napkins and paper 3-5 times a day. If there is too much menstrual blood, changing the sanitary napkin and paper will immediately get wet, and menstrual blood flow is also abnormal. Excessive menstrual bleeding may be caused by factors such as excessive mental tension, environmental changes, malnutrition, metabolic disorders, etc. Excessive expiration of menstrual blood can lead to anemia, and the cause should be identified and treated. Of course, due to abnormalities in the uterus, ovaries, or systemic diseases, low menstrual flow is also abnormal, and immediate medical attention is necessary. Excessive menstrual flow is more common among adolescent girls. The main reason is that during puberty, the ovarian function is not yet fully mature, and a portion of menstruation is anovulatory. No ovulation, no corpus luteum, no corpus luteum, no progesterone deficiency. Therefore, the endometrium is only in the proliferative phase and cannot reach the perfect secretion phase. The incomplete shedding of the endometrium affects uterine contraction and excessive menstrual bleeding. If this situation is not noticed, anemia symptoms such as pale complexion, weakness, and dizziness should also be treated for a long time.
