Ovulation bleeding has not healed after a week

A small amount of vaginal bleeding during ovulation is a common physiological phenomenon, but if the amount of bleeding is heavy and the duration is long, you should be alert to some pathological changes. It is best to go to the hospital for examination to understand the specific cause. Generally speaking, this is related to chronic inflammation of the endometrium. If ovulation bleeding occurs, you must pay attention to personal hygiene and prevent infection. Let’s take a look at this aspect.

Ovulation bleeding has not healed after a week

There are often some young women who experience a small amount of blood flowing out of their vagina one week after their normal menstruation. The blood is dark red or bright red, with no special smell, and generally there is no special feeling. Sometimes there is abdominal bloating. They go to the local hospital for examination, but no cause can be found, and they become very nervous. This is not a terrible pathological change in your body, but ovulation bleeding.

Ovulation bleeding usually occurs about 14 days before menstruation, and the chance of ovulation bleeding is not very high. Uterine bleeding occurs during ovulation, with a small amount of bleeding, sometimes only brown discharge. It usually stops on its own within 2-3 days, and can last up to 7 days. There are roughly two reasons for ovulation bleeding: the imbalance of sex hormone secretion causes large fluctuations in hormone levels during ovulation, resulting in obvious bleeding. Chronic inflammation of the endometrium or inflammatory thickening of the ovarian surface causes significant endometrial congestion during ovulation, and bleeding is not easy to stop on its own, or the inflammatory thickened follicle surface ruptures and bleeds more than normal, and flows back into the uterine cavity with the peristalsis of the fallopian tube and is discharged from the body through the vagina. If the condition lasts for a long time, you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations and take targeted treatment in time.
