Patient's question:
What is withdrawal bleeding? My daughter has been feeling unwell recently, and the hospital said it's withdrawal bleeding. I don't understand. My daughter said her menstrual flow has been decreasing, and now she doesn't have any major health issues. Could you explain what withdrawal bleeding is? Please provide a detailed explanation.Doctor's answer:
Due to a sudden drop in the level of sex hormones in the body, causing the endometrium to shed and leading to uterine bleeding, this is known as withdrawal bleeding. Bleeding caused by endogenous hormones is referred to as menstruation; bleeding induced by drugs (such as birth control pills) is often called withdrawal bleeding.There are many reasons that can cause luteal dysfunction, and patients need timely treatment. It is recommended to seek treatment at a professional hospital for your condition. Pay attention to the progression of your illness and avoid self-treatment. Additionally, focus on self-care, maintain a balanced diet, and keep clean. I wish you a speedy recovery!
