Patient's question:
Menstruation is heavy and prolonged, lasting six to seven days. Every time it's uncontrollable. How should I handle this?Doctor's answer:
If the menstrual flow is excessive but less than 80 milliliters, oral medication treatment is required. It is recommended that you are still young and if you have just started menstruating, it is likely that the endocrine system has not yet achieved balance, causing this. You can have blood tests for the six major sex hormones at the hospital to see if it is endocrine disorder-induced dysfunctional uterine bleeding. If it is dysfunctional uterine bleeding, oral estrogen-progestogen sequential therapy is needed to regulate the menstrual cycle. Gynecological diseases are a common gynecological condition, and during treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment.
