Patient's question:
Age: 50 years old, with high blood pressure but slightly underweightDoctors, hello!
My mother-in-law has been experiencing irregular menstruation lately. She has been bleeding from her lower body ever since her last period. She has seen a doctor, who explained that it's due to her frail health and that she needs to be (treated/regulated). They said it's nothing to worry about. But this time, it's happening again after her period. She has never had this issue before and doesn't know what's going on. I hope the doctors can help explain this!
Note: Due to her high blood pressure, she has been taking medication. Is this a side effect of the medication, or is it because she is approaching menopause?
Thank you
Doctor's answer:
Hello, lesions of the uterine body, cervix, and vagina can all cause vaginal bleeding. Common causes include reproductive tract infections, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, or submucosal uterine fibroids, etc. Rest and nutrition should be paid attention to, spicy foods should be avoided, and local cleanliness and hygiene should be maintained.The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects women's health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a leukorrhea test in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. In daily life, dietary regulation should be noted, and light, easily digestible foods should be consumed. Spicy, irritating, and cold foods should be avoided.
