How many days does menstruation usually last?

Women's menstruation usually lasts a certain number of days. If the menstruation comes too early or too late, it is very likely that there is a problem with the woman's body. Then female patients need to pay attention to take appropriate examination methods in time to carry out examination and treatment to ensure the health of the body. So how many days does the menstruation usually last? Well, let me introduce this issue to you below.

Blood clots in menstruation indicate blood stasis, which can be divided into blood stasis caused by cold and blood stasis caused by qi stagnation. In general, you should not eat raw or cold food, or engage in strenuous exercise during menstruation, and you should keep your mood balanced so that your qi and blood can flow smoothly and your menstruation can be smooth without blood clots, breast tenderness, or pain in the first one or two days of menstruation. However, if you have a proper diet and control your emotions, but the blood clot problem does not improve, it is recommended that you go to the hospital to consult a doctor and take Chinese medicine.

The diagnosis of menstrual problems focuses on four words: period, quantity, color, and quality. The "period" here refers to the cycle and menstrual period. A cycle is 28-30 days, which is the standard. On this basis, any period within ±7 days is acceptable. A menstrual period of 3-7 days is normal, while one that lasts more than 7 days is abnormal. However, in most cases, if there is an ovulation cycle, there are some minor problems with the ovarian secretion function. You don't need to worry too much and it is recommended to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. What needs to be vigilant is that there is an endocrine problem called "corpus luteum atrophy incomplete", which can cause menstrual disorders, early miscarriage, infertility, etc., and you should go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

The specific situation depends on the size of the uterine fibroids. Generally speaking, for women of this age, if the fibroids are no larger than 5 cm and they do not experience heavy menstrual flow, long periods, menstrual pain, or are unable to conceive, then regular checkups are sufficient. It is recommended that 1-2 ultrasounds be done each year. At present, your menstrual period is still normal, and surgery or other intervention measures are not considered for the time being. However, if the uterine fibroids are larger than 5 cm, surgical treatment can be considered.

The above is my opinion on this issue. If there is any abnormality in the body of a female patient, it is necessary to pay attention to take appropriate examination methods in time to ensure the health of the patient and avoid situations where the patient’s safety is affected by menstrual problems.
