Menstruation is always unclean

Because women have different physical conditions, their menstrual cycles are also different. Normally, a woman's menstruation will end in five to seven days. In the later stages of menstruation, women's bleeding will gradually decrease until it stops completely. But some women find that their menstruation is always unclean. Although the amount of bleeding is not large in the later stages, it is intermittent. So, why is it that menstruation is always unclean?

1. Causes of unclean menstruation

1. Functional uterine bleeding

There are no obvious organic changes, but it may manifest as endless bleeding or heavy bleeding, mainly manifested by a significant prolongation of bleeding time after the onset of menstruation. In most cases, the menstrual period lasts about 10 days, and in some cases it can even be as long as 2 months.

2. Uterine fibroids

Uterine fibroids growing in different locations will have different symptoms, such as long menstrual periods, heavy menstrual flow, increased nocturia, frequent urination, unexplained constipation, and even a lump can be felt in the abdomen.

3. Luteal insufficiency

Insufficient progesterone secretion by the corpus luteum after ovulation or premature atrophy of the corpus luteum, which leads to delayed endometrial development, is usually called luteal insufficiency.

Patients are prone to shortened menstrual cycles, recurrent miscarriages or infertility.

4. Impact of IUD

There is generally a six-month adaptation period after IUD insertion. It is normal to experience lower abdominal discomfort within 3-6 months after the IUD is inserted. If you still have a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen, back pain, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, or menstrual blood volume that is twice the usual after 7 months, you should see a doctor.

5. Medical abortion

Drugs disrupt the body's own hormone balance, which may lead to insufficient hormone secretion and hormone disorder. Patients may experience abnormal menstrual cycles, as well as dysmenorrhea, pain during sexual intercourse, decreased libido and other discomforts.

6. Others

In addition to the above reasons, environmental changes, excessive fatigue or mental stress can cause irregular menstruation. Generally, the symptoms can be significantly improved through self-adjustment. If irregular menstruation lasts for a long time, you should seek medical treatment in time.

2. What to do if your menstruation is not clean

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

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

3. 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.

4. 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.
