What are the hazards of functional uterine bleeding

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding can cause serious harm to women, because long-term bleeding and heavy bleeding may cause anemia. It can also destroy the self-cleaning function of the vagina and make it more susceptible to bacterial infection.

1. Women with functional uterine bleeding often suffer from anemia symptoms due to frequent functional uterine bleeding, prolonged bleeding time and high bleeding volume. The main symptoms are pale complexion, pale eyelids, lips and nails, fatigue, dizziness, tinnitus and other symptoms. In severe cases, they may even suffer from hemorrhagic shock, endangering the life of women. In addition, if women bleed for a long time, it will also have adverse effects on their reproductive function and other systems in the body.

2. Since functional uterine bleeding changes the normal weakly acidic environment of the vagina, thereby destroying the self-cleaning function of the vagina, once pathogens invade, they cannot be killed, which will lead to vaginal infection. In addition, when women have functional uterine bleeding, the cervix is ​​often in a relaxed state, which provides favorable conditions for bacteria to ascend and can easily cause ascending infection. Experts recommend: Functional uterine bleeding must be treated promptly. The principle of treatment for functional uterine bleeding is to quickly stop bleeding and adjust the menstrual cycle, prevent recurrence and correct anemia. During treatment, it is necessary to distinguish between the ovulatory type and the anovulatory type, and formulate corresponding plans based on the patient's age, course of disease, amount of bleeding, physical condition, and fertility requirements.

3. For young and middle-aged patients, the goal is to restore ovulation. For menopausal women with functional uterine bleeding, the focus is on adjusting the cycle, reducing bleeding, and preventing recurrence after bleeding stops. There is no need to restore ovulation. For those who are of childbearing age and have ovulatory sex and wish to have children, the corpus luteum function should be normalized.
