Patient's question:
I got my period on November 20th, and it stopped on the 13th of the next month. It lasted for half a month, which is quite a long time. Moreover, the amount of menstrual blood was not much, just a little. But it kept going for half a month. The color of the menstrual blood was also not normal. Doctor, what should I do about irregular periods?Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation is recommended to visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination and a detailed check of urine HCG to rule out whether the bleeding is caused by miscarriage or other reasons. You can also have a blood test for the six sex hormones on the third day of your next menstrual period to check if it is caused by hormonal imbalance. The doctor will then prescribe medication based on your test results for targeted treatment. During treatment, maintain a light diet, stay in a good mood, avoid excessive stress, get adequate rest, and engage in appropriate activities.
