What factors cause bleeding of leukorrhea outside of menstruation?

Patient's question:

I had my period on the 20th of last month, and I bled again on the 1st of this month. The amount was very small. I have had this situation before, and because the amount was small, I didn't pay much attention. This time, the amount of blood is noticeably more. So, what causes leukorrhea outside of the menstrual period? My menstrual cycle is very regular and has not been delayed.

Doctor's answer:

Non-menstrual vaginal bleeding, combined with your current menstrual cycle, suggests the presence of an ovulation period. It may be a symptom of ovulation bleeding. If the bleeding is minimal, avoid spicy foods and carefully monitor the situation. Alternatively, you can visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination and diagnosis. Ovulation bleeding is generally related to low estrogen levels, and consuming more warming foods can help. Special treatment is not usually required. If you have other discomforting symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment.
