Attention: Seven major reasons may cause women to have prolonged menstrual period!

Menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon for women, which usually lasts for 4 to 7 days. However, some women find that their menstruation lasts particularly long each time. What is going on?

1. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease

If you suffer from some uterine diseases, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, and intrauterine polyps, these diseases will cause abnormal blood circulation in the uterus, which will increase blood stasis and naturally lead to increased menstrual volume and prolonged menstrual duration every month.

2. Uterine fibroids

If you have submucosal uterine fibroids, which we often call uterine fibroids, the size of the uterus in your body will change and increase, which will cause abnormal contractions of the uterus, which may also lead to prolonged menstruation and increased menstrual volume.

3. Uterine dysfunctional bleeding

If the ovulation function of the uterus is abnormal, it will cause irregular shedding of the endometrium and the uterus will also be accompanied by bleeding symptoms. Therefore, the cause of prolonged menstruation may be endocrine dysfunction. These reasons may lead to prolonged menstruation and increase physical difficulties.

4. Endometriosis

Experts tell us that this disease will affect the contraction function of our uterine muscle layer and may also cause the endometrium to strengthen, which will cause women to have a prolonged menstrual period and an increase in the amount of menstrual discharge each month.

5. Chronic uterine hypertrophy

If a woman's pelvic cavity has a lot of congestion, it will stimulate the ovaries to secrete a large amount of estrogen, so that the thickness of the uterine muscle layer will increase greatly, far exceeding the normal range. Experts tell us that thickening of the uterine myometrium can also cause abnormalities in our menstruation, and the most obvious symptom is prolonged menstruation.

6. Endocrine dysfunction

If there is an abnormality in the body's endocrine system, various problems will arise during menstruation, the most common of which is prolonged menstruation.

7. Blood diseases

There are many reasons why women have long menstrual periods. In addition to the reasons mentioned above, it may also be caused by blood diseases. If there is thrombocytopenia in the body, purpura and anemia are likely to occur, and they are often more serious before menstruation. If there is severe uterine bleeding in the uterus, the menstrual period will also be prolonged. In addition, if you suffer from some chronic diseases, such as chronic hepatitis, chronic anemia or nephritis, these diseases will also cause the blood vessel walls to become more permeable and fragile, which can easily cause bleeding symptoms.
