What causes a shortened menstrual period?

There are always a few days of menstruation every month that are of great concern to many female friends, but how much do you know about the relevant knowledge about menstruation? Maybe many friends don’t understand it very well, and many female friends, for various reasons, often find it difficult to talk about this aspect of their bodies. This can easily lead to delays in the treatment of the disease and miss the best time for disease treatment. Let’s take a look at the experts’ introduction to shortened menstruation.

Shortened menstrual period is one of the clinical manifestations of perimenopausal syndrome. Women gradually transition from their reproductive period to sexual maturity to old age, during which they undergo a series of physiological changes. Some women experience one symptom or another, which is called perimenopausal syndrome.

Clinical manifestations:

1. Changes in menstruation, mainly prolonged menstrual cycle, occasional amenorrhea or irregularity; decreased menstrual blood volume or sudden increase or even heavy bleeding; prolonged or shortened menstrual period, etc.

2. Changes in the urinary and reproductive system include pelvic floor relaxation, sagging breasts, thinning of the vaginal mucosa, disappearance of wrinkles, reduced secretions, pain during sexual intercourse, and sometimes symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and urinary incontinence.

3. Vasomotor syndrome, namely symptoms such as flushing, sweating, palpitations, and dizziness, with varying frequency of attacks and lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes.

4. Mental symptoms, often including anxiety, depression, agitation, moodiness, bad temper, memory loss, inattention, insomnia, etc.

5. Osteoporosis. About 25% of postmenopausal women suffer from osteoporosis, back pain, leg cramps, muscle and joint pain, etc.

6. Prone to abnormal lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

After reading the above experts’ introduction, I believe many friends have their own understanding of the shortened menstrual period. I hope these introductions can help everyone to better and rationally look at this phenomenon of the human body. If you find anything suspicious, you should go to a regular hospital immediately to prevent the disease from worsening. At the same time, the editor reminds everyone not to panic when encountering a disease. The key is to look at the problem positively and rationally.
