Picture of light blood after menstruation

Many women notice that they have fresh blood discharged after their menstrual period, but they don’t know what causes it. So what does it mean if there is fresh blood discharged after the menstrual period? What should I do if there is light blood after my period?

Everything is normal

If a woman still has blood discharge after her period, it may be because her period is not completely gone. Because the physiological structures of different women are different, and different lifestyles will have different effects on the menstrual period. At the same time, environmental factors will also affect the menstrual period. Therefore, it may be normal for women to have blood discharge after their period.

Gynecological inflammation

If a woman suffers from gynecological inflammation, it is also possible that there will be bleeding after menstruation. For example, when suffering from vaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, etc., the inflammatory factors in the body will cause bleeding at the site of inflammation. Therefore, the bleeding after menstruation may be caused by gynecological inflammation.

Multifunctional abnormal uterine bleeding

Functional uterine bleeding is commonly known as functional uterine bleeding. When the body's endocrine system is abnormal, it is easy to cause abnormal bleeding in the uterus. This condition often occurs in women in puberty or menopause. It is usually caused by mental factors, sudden changes in the environment, excessive physical fatigue, etc. Therefore, functional uterine bleeding is also one of the reasons why there is bleeding after menstruation.

Pregnancy factors

If women of childbearing age and who have sex experience bleeding after their menstrual period, it may be caused by pregnancy factors. For example, if you have had a hydatidiform mole before, abnormal vaginal bleeding may occur after recovery and the resumption of menstruation. This may be the early stage of malignant hydatidiform mole. However, in order to determine the specific cause, it is recommended to go to the hospital for medical treatment immediately.
