What is the reason for bleeding again a few days after the menstrual period is over?

Normal menstruation is that there is no bleeding after a few days of vaginal bleeding until the next month's menstruation. However, many female friends also have vaginal bleeding a few days after the menstruation is over. This phenomenon is called irregular vaginal bleeding. Usually the amount of bleeding is also uneven. No matter which situation it is, it needs to be checked in time. Let's understand what causes this situation.

Non-menstrual vaginal bleeding is usually caused by:

"Ovulation bleeding" is just a small amount of brown discharge, which usually lasts for half a day or 2-3 days, and no more than 7 days at most, and may be accompanied by slight ovulation pain and backache.

Second, functional uterine bleeding, which is usually manifested by irregular menstrual cycles, excessive menstrual flow, prolonged menstruation or irregular bleeding.

Third, taking emergency contraceptive pills can also cause vaginal bleeding. Emergency contraceptive pills can affect the menstrual cycle, especially repeated use can cause menstrual disorders, bleeding, and continuous bleeding.

4. Cervical tumor: Cervical cancer can also cause bleeding, which starts as contact bleeding and later develops into a small amount of irregular vaginal bleeding. In the late stage, the amount of bleeding increases, and even heavy bleeding may occur.

5. Dysfunctional uterine bleeding: occurs before and after puberty, during childbearing years, and before and after menopause. It manifests as abnormalities in the menstrual cycle and menstrual period, with bleeding that may be more or less, sometimes absent, or even continuous.

6. Vaginal tumors and vaginal wall tumors: such as vaginal cancer, but the amount of bleeding is generally not much. Vaginal injury and foreign objects in the vagina can also cause bleeding. The vaginal walls of postmenopausal women are very thin, and damage from sexual intercourse can lead to bleeding.

7. Foreign bodies in the uterine cavity: such as residual fetal membranes after cesarean section, which affect the contraction and repair of the endometrium and cause bleeding. Mechanical compression of the intrauterine device can cause local damage, necrosis and superficial ulcers in the endometrium, leading to bleeding. Endometriosis and adenomyosis may also cause bleeding.

8. Uterine lesions: Acute endometritis causes congestion and edema of the endometrium. In severe cases, it may lead to excessive menstrual flow or continuous vaginal bleeding. Patients with chronic endometritis may experience increased menstrual flow or prolonged menstrual periods, or irregular vaginal bleeding. In addition, endometrial tuberculosis also causes irregular vaginal bleeding.

The article introduces several causes of irregular vaginal bleeding. In summary, there are both physiological and pathological factors. Therefore, patients who only bleed occasionally and with small amounts of bleeding do not need to be too nervous. They can observe themselves for a period of time. Friends who bleed after menstruation and with a large amount of bleeding should go to the hospital in time to find the cause to avoid excessive blood loss that endangers their life.
