Patient's question:
Previously, it was a D&C procedure due to menstrual irregularities, which was found to be endometrial polyps. I took progesterone to regulate my period. After the second D&C, my period has still not ended after eight days, which is the same abnormality as before. Before my period starts, there is black blood for a few days, and it only starts to be more abundant on the fourth day. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
If there are endometrial polyps, they can easily interfere with menstruation. Small D&C procedures can remove them. It is recommended that you relax and not get too anxious. You can schedule follow-up examinations. The endometrium generally needs time to recover completely. The normal duration of menstruation is 3-7 days. If it still shortens, you can take oral medication for symptomatic treatment. Hormonal drugs can also be used to regulate the menstrual cycle for symptomatic treatment. The recurrence of gynecological diseases severely threatens women's health. Patients should pay attention to follow-up examinations after menstruation, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods.
