What is the reason for blood streaks after menstruation?

Every girl has menstruation every month, and there will be vaginal bleeding during menstruation. This is a process of excreting waste. However, after the menstrual period ends, under normal circumstances, the vagina should not bleed, but some women report that there is still blood in their vaginal discharge after the menstrual period ends. This is definitely an abnormal phenomenon, so we have to ask, what causes the phenomenon of vaginal blood after the menstruation ends?

There are two possible causes for bloody leucorrhea after menstruation, physiological and pathological. Generally, it occurs during the ovulation period of women, that is, in the middle of the menstrual period. It refers to a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods. There is a high probability of lower abdominal pain. This is a physiological reason for bloody leucorrhea after menstruation. However, pathological bloody leucorrhea after menstruation may be caused by gynecological diseases, which require timely examination, identification of symptoms, and targeted treatment.

1. Suffering from acute vaginitis. The main manifestation of this disease is an increase in leucorrhea, which is yellow, watery or purulent and has a foul odor. In severe cases, vaginal bleeding may also occur.

2. For severe cervical erosion. Symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, yellowing, becoming sticky and smelly, vulvar itching, bleeding during sexual intercourse, lower back pain, and severe dysmenorrhea.

3. Cervical polyps are a type of chronic cervicitis, which can cause yellow leucorrhea with an odor and blood in the leucorrhea.

4. Cervical cancer. After sexual intercourse, there will be a small amount of vaginal discharge and blood.

5. Endometrial cancer. The clinical manifestation is irregular bleeding, with the amount of bleeding sometimes more and sometimes less. Non-menopausal women may have prolonged menstrual flow, and postmenopausal women will experience postmenopausal bleeding.

6. The clinical manifestation of senile vaginitis is that the vaginal discharge will increase, the color will be light yellow, and in severe cases, there will be bloody purulent leucorrhea.

The above introduces the reasons why there is still blood in the genitals after the menstruation ends. If the patient suffers from the above symptoms, it is best to go to the hospital for examination immediately. Only when the cause is confirmed can symptomatic treatment be given. It is best not to use drugs on your own without a confirmed diagnosis, so as to avoid misdiagnosis or delay of the disease. And in daily life, we should pay special attention to our private hygiene.
