Why does ovulation bleeding occur?

But no matter what, there are certain reasons for ovulation bleeding. So if you don’t want to bleed during ovulation, it is recommended that you first understand why ovulation bleeding occurs.

Causes

1. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main cause of intermenstrual bleeding is Yin deficiency, liver depression, damp heat, blood stasis, spleen deficiency, etc., which cause the Chong and Ren meridians to be disturbed during the period of stasis and the blood sea to be unstable.

2. Western medicine believes that due to the maturation of the follicles and ovulation, the estrogen level will drop significantly. For some women, the lower estrogen level cannot maintain the growth of the endometrium, causing local shedding of the endometrium and a small amount of breakthrough bleeding. However, under normal circumstances, after ovulation, with the formation of the corpus luteum, the corpus luteum secretes estrogen and progesterone, which will quickly repair the endometrium and change it to the proliferative phase, allowing the endometrium to thicken and repair and the bleeding to stop.

Clinical manifestations

It usually occurs on the 12th to 16th day of a regular menstrual cycle, usually lasts for several hours or 2 to 3 days, no more than 7 days, and the amount is significantly less than normal menstrual bleeding, and the bleeding can stop on its own. It may be accompanied by mild lower abdominal discomfort or back pain, or there may be no accompanying discomfort. Sometimes it occurs occasionally from this menstrual cycle to the next menstrual cycle, and in some individuals it may last for a long time, with ovulation bleeding occurring in 4 to 5 menstrual cycles.
