What causes abnormal uterine bleeding?

Gynecological diseases are a very large category, and many women suffer from this type of disease. Abnormal uterine bleeding is also a type of gynecological disease. We know that women will regularly expel dirty blood from their bodies during menstruation, but if women experience bleeding during non-menstrual period, this is the abnormal uterine bleeding mentioned above. What causes abnormal uterine bleeding?

Uterine abnormalities are usually caused by some gynecological diseases. It is very necessary for women to understand and know how to treat such diseases. Let’s take a look at what causes abnormal uterine bleeding and learn how to treat it.

What causes abnormal uterine bleeding?

1. Vaginitis

In severe candidal vaginitis, the vaginal mucosa will be covered with a white film-like substance. After wiping it off, the vaginal wall will have erosion or ulceration, and the ulceration surface will bleed.

2. Cervical inflammation

Sometimes cervical erosion and cervical polyps can also cause vaginal bleeding, which usually manifests as blood in the leucorrhea. In addition, the diseased tissue of cervical tuberculosis will also ulcerate, and the ulcer surface will also bleed when it ruptures.

3. Cervical cancer

When suffering from cervical cancer, the tumor invades the blood vessels in the stroma and can cause vaginal bleeding. It starts as contact bleeding and then develops into a small amount of irregular vaginal bleeding. In the late stage, the amount of bleeding increases and may even cause heavy bleeding.

4. Vaginal foreign bodies

Foreign objects in the vagina can damage the vaginal wall and cause bleeding. Since the vaginal wall of postmenopausal women is thin, it may also be damaged during sexual intercourse, leading to vaginal bleeding.

What to do if you have abnormal uterine bleeding

1. If it is caused by gynecological diseases, you need to actively go to the hospital for examination and treatment. After all, when the uterus bleeds, simple hemostasis cannot achieve good recovery and treatment effects, but increases the risk of disease recurrence. At the same time, you should pay attention to keeping warm when bleeding.

2. Maintain good personal hygiene habits. In addition, women who have sexual life should take contraceptive measures and reduce the number of artificial abortions to reduce various stimulations and injuries to the body caused by surgery.

3. Psychological adjustment is also very important. If you are too anxious and nervous before the operation, it will definitely affect the progress of the operation and the degree of postoperative recovery.

4. If abnormal uterine bleeding is treated with surgery, women should be closely observed after the operation and inform the doctor immediately if any discomfort occurs.

5. If women have vaginal discharge after surgery, they need to be closely observed to prevent infection.

This abnormal bleeding condition is mostly caused by gynecological inflammation. In the face of this situation, don't panic. Pay more attention to personal hygiene habits, adjust your mental state, seek medical treatment in time, follow the doctor's advice, insist on check-ups and medication. There is no disease that cannot be overcome, and I believe it will be cured soon.
