1. Is it normal to bleed 15 days after menstruation?

If the bleeding is continuous and lasts for a long time without any regularity, it is mostly caused by malignant tumors of the reproductive system. Therefore, female friends need to see a doctor for examination as soon as possible, and check for endometrial cancer or cervical cancer. If a woman of childbearing age has a normal sexual life but bleeds again after her period is over, she should consider pregnancy-related reasons, such as miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy.

If the patient not only has vaginal bleeding but also has excessive leucorrhea, it may be caused by a uterine tumor. At this time, it is necessary to consider whether the woman has a combined infection such as uterine cervical fibroids and advanced cervical cancer. If the patient bleeds for several days before or after menstruation, or has dark red discharge, it is likely to be ovulatory menstrual disorders, endometriosis, and side effects of the IUD.

Signs of ovulation: The body temperature during the ovulation period is biphasic, B-ultrasound shows normal ovulation, and ovulation test paper test also shows ovulation changes. Bleeding occurs when the body temperature changes from low to high and when the pregnancy test paper changes from positive to negative, which is the ovulation period.
