What if my period comes five days early?

Menstruation is a normal physiological reaction in women. Generally speaking, women will experience short-term advances and delays in their menstrual cycle. At this time, female friends should carefully find out the reasons for their abnormal menstruation. So, what is the reason for menstruation being five days early? Please see the introduction of this article on this issue. I hope this article will be helpful to all female friends.

Menstruation is a physiological cycle. Normal menstruation is a sign of healthy female reproductive organs. Normally, women's menstruation is regular. Although it is not necessarily a 28-day cycle, as long as it is regular, it is normal to have a period every 20-40 days. For personal cycles, 7 or 10 days earlier or later is considered normal. For example, if you came on the 8th last time and on the 12th this time, or a few days earlier, it doesn’t matter.

Causes of early menstruation

The causes are generally caused by internal or external factors. Internal causes refer to the lack of physical fitness, which leads to insufficient qi and blood. External causes are generally caused by excessive yang energy and frequent consumption of hot foods.

Reason 1: Qi deficiency

People who have irregular diet or overwork are most likely to damage their temper. The spleen is the "manager" of blood. If the "manager" is weak, the "managed" will inevitably take the opportunity to "make trouble", causing menstruation to come early. If there is no fire in the pulse and the menstruation comes early or late, it is because the heart and spleen qi are weak and cannot control the disease.

Reason 2: Blood heat

People who have excessive yang energy, or who consume excessive spicy food and supplements, or who are depressed, or who have lost a lot of blood due to long-term illness, are prone to having hot blood. When the blood gets hot, it flows more quickly, causing the menstrual period to come earlier. Blood heat can be divided into real heat, false heat, and liver depression-induced heat.

For the treatment of premature menstruation, traditional Chinese medicine is more effective than modern medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the treatment principle for early menstruation is to focus on regulating menstruation to cure the root cause. Generally speaking, if the disease occurs first and then the menstruation is early, the disease should be treated first, and the menstruation will regulate itself after the disease is cured. If the disease occurs due to irregular menstruation, the menstruation should be regulated first, and the disease will be cured after the menstruation is regulated.

According to the above analysis of the causes of early menstruation, Qi deficiency and blood heat are the main causes of early menstruation in women. After the menstrual cycle becomes abnormal, female friends should find ways to regulate the abnormal menstruation as soon as possible according to the cause of the disease to avoid further advance or delay of menstruation.
