Women's menstruation is very regular, but in some cases, menstruation may be delayed. Abnormal menstruation often brings great trouble to women. Many women do not know what is going on when their menstruation is delayed, the amount of menstruation is small, and the color of the menstrual discharge is dark brown. There are many factors that lead to this situation. We need to analyze it in detail and make a comprehensive judgment based on the characteristics of our own body. Let’s take a closer look below. Are you married? Are you taking progesterone? If not, it is related to excessive mental stress, fatigue, weight loss, malnutrition, endocrine abnormalities, and you just need to adjust your mentality and stabilize your emotions. Occasionally catching a cold can also cause brown menstruation, which is caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, and menstrual blood stagnation in the uterus for a long time. It is best to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis. Small menstrual flow and delayed menstruation are considered to be irregular menstruation. It is mostly caused by hypopituitarism, which leads to insufficient ovarian estrogen secretion, insufficient endometrial proliferation; lesions of the uterus itself, endometrial dysplasia, endometrial tuberculosis, and rough curettage that damages the endometrium; individual differences and other reasons. Progesterone is a progestin that can promote endometrial proliferation, reduce uterine muscle excitability, ensure the safe progress of pregnancy, and promote the growth of mammary alveoli to prepare for lactation. So, if you are pregnant, progesterone is harmless to you and your baby, and can help protect the fetus. On the other hand, if you are not pregnant, you should have your period after 3 days of continuous injections and stopping the medication. Because when you are not pregnant, continuous injection of progesterone keeps the progesterone level in your body at a higher level, and then suddenly stopping the medication and the hormone level drops, it will cause endometrial exfoliation bleeding and form menstruation. What causes dark brown discharge in early pregnancy? 1. Stimulate menstruation Some female friends found out that they were pregnant, but they also had brown discharge and thought it was menstruation. In fact, this is stimulated menstruation. It is harmless to the health of pregnant women and fetuses and usually occurs within three months of pregnancy. 2. Biochemical pregnancy Biochemical pregnancy is called subclinical miscarriage or hidden miscarriage, which is mainly caused by the failure of the fertilized egg to implant. The characteristic of biochemical pregnancy is that the HCG value is relatively high, and the urine test with early pregnancy test paper will also be positive, but the gestational sac cannot be detected by B-ultrasound. At the same time, brown secretions will appear, and normal menstruation will come afterwards. 3. Cervical disease The appearance of brown discharge in early pregnancy is also related to cervical disease. For example, if brown discharge appears after sexual intercourse, it is basically related to cervical erosion. In addition to cervical erosion, cervical polyps can also cause brown discharge. 4. Ectopic pregnancy If the fertilized egg does not implant in the uterine cavity but pregnancy occurs, after excluding biochemical pregnancy, it will be diagnosed as an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is characterized by brown discharge and abdominal pain that continues to get worse. Ectopic pregnancy needs to be treated promptly, otherwise it will cause great harm. If brown discharge occurs after pregnancy, it must be taken seriously. It is best to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis in time. After finding the cause, effective measures should be taken for treatment to avoid causing more serious harm to women's health. |
