Patient's question:
Irregular menstruation, usually the maximum amount of menstrual flow is only one or two pieces of daily sanitary napkins. The pale brown color disappeared, but there was bleeding again on the seventh day. On the eighth day, the amount of blood suddenly increased to one or two times the usual menstrual flow. A bit upset, is this not heavy bleeding? Can I take desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol tablets to regulate my period by myself?Doctor's answer:
Usually, my menstrual flow is not very heavy, and it's light brown in color. This time, during my period, the amount suddenly increased to twice the usual amount on the eighth day. This situation cannot be confirmed as menstrual disorder. It is recommended to wait and see how the next menstrual cycle goes. If the next cycle is still abnormal, it is advisable to have a blood test for six endocrine hormones on the third day of the period. If it is confirmed that the menstrual abnormality is caused by endocrine disorder, natural estrogen and progesterone may be used for regulation. Gynecological diseases are a common condition that can easily occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay more attention to cleanliness. Finally, I wish female patients a speedy recovery!
