What is the reason for menstruation every 20 days?

Reasons for short menstrual cycles include:

1. Western medicine believes that the length of the menstrual cycle is related to the length of time the egg grows and develops. People whose uterus develops for a shorter period of time have a shorter menstrual cycle. A physiological cycle is divided into the menstrual period, the follicular period, the ovulation period and the ovulatory period. At the same time, the uterine wall circulates from bleeding to gradually thickening and hematoma.

2. Recent stress or irregular daily routine can cause a short menstrual cycle. Generally speaking, if ovulation bleeding only occurs once or twice inadvertently, and the bleeding time is short and the bleeding is little, you don’t need to worry too much. You can adjust your work and rest time to see if there is any improvement. If this type of symptom recurs and bleeding is heavy, you should not take chances and go to the hospital for further examination.

3. Related diseases of the uterus, endometrium, and cervix can also cause abnormal bleeding during the menstrual period, such as uterine polyps, uterine intrauterine polyps, uterine fibroids, etc. In addition, it is also necessary to clarify whether there is a possibility of pregnancy. In the early stages of pregnancy, some women may have a small amount of brown spotty bleeding because the embryonic development process is still unstable.

4. Ovulation bleeding is common. If this type of abnormal bleeding occurs frequently, treatment should be considered to prevent continued ovulation bleeding from affecting pregnancy or increasing the risk of other gynecological diseases. For the treatment of ovulatory bleeding, since it is caused by changes in female hormones, growth hormone is usually used to treat it in order to restore the midbrain-pituitary-uterine-ovarian axis to its normal track. However, it should be noted that the use of growth hormone regulation must be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.

The normal menstrual cycle is 21-35 days, with an average of 28 days. Generally speaking, it is normal for menstruation to be advanced or delayed by about a week. Some women have prolonged menstrual cycles. There are many reasons for long menstrual cycles, which can be divided into the following categories: abnormalities in the nerve center - hypothalamus-pituitary gland; pituitary abnormalities refer to pituitary gland diseases that cause abnormal gonadotropin metabolism, which can be congenital or acquired; uterine and ovarian abnormalities are due to congenital dysplasia of the uterus and ovaries or ovarian abnormalities or secondary diseases that cause irregular menstruation. The actual reasons for long menstrual cycles are:

1. Endometriosis: The occurrence of endometriosis will affect the contraction of the uterine myometrium or the extension of the endometrium. The extension of the uterine wall will increase the shedding time of the endometrium, resulting in excessive menstrual cycles or prolonged menstruation.

2. Placement of an IUD: When an IUD is placed, the uterine wall is compressed by the ring, causing inflammatory infiltration of body cells and easily leading to prolonged menstruation.
