Menstruation has not stopped for more than ten days

Menstruation is the normal physiological cycle of every woman. Menstrual conditions are completely different for each person. Some women have their periods once a month, which is relatively normal, but some women often have delayed or early menstruation. If menstruation is advanced or delayed by about a week, it is relatively normal, but if it is delayed for too long, it means that there is something wrong with the body. Why doesn’t my period end after more than ten days?

1. What is the reason for menstruation not being over for more than ten days?

It is considered that the menstrual irregularity is caused by endocrine disorders. Prolonged menstruation refers to a menstrual cycle that lasts more than 7 days or even 2 weeks. It is mostly caused by incomplete corpus luteum atrophy, prolonged endometrial repair or pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis or placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device. You need to go to the hospital as soon as possible to check the cause and receive symptomatic treatment.

2. What to do if your menstrual period is prolonged and not clean

If menstruation is always irregular, symptomatic treatment should be given. For example, the primary goal for patients with functional uterine bleeding is to stop the bleeding, and the second is to adjust the menstrual cycle to avoid recurrence of bleeding. For patients with uterine fibroids, drug treatment or surgical treatment is determined based on the size of the tumor. For patients with luteal insufficiency, hormones can be used to adjust menstruation in the short term. For patients whose menstruation is always irregular due to the influence of the IUD, other contraceptive methods can be tried.

3. Lifestyle conditioning methods for patients with irregular menstruation

1. Develop good hygiene habits, especially during the menstrual period, you should combine work and exercise, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, and wash and change underwear frequently.

2. Maintain a regular rhythm of life, with both work and rest, and avoid overwork.

3. Pay attention to emotional regulation and avoid excessive tension or large mood swings.

4. Irregular menstruation is often accompanied by varying degrees of anemia. Therefore, you should strengthen your nutrition in your diet and eat more iron-containing foods such as animal offal to ensure your iron needs. At the same time, pay attention to ensuring a balanced intake of nutrients such as protein, fiber, and minerals.

5. Learn more about physiological menstruation and seek medical attention promptly if any menstrual abnormalities occur. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, you should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, insist on follow-up, and achieve complete recovery.
