Patient's question:
Doctor:Hello, I am new to online consultations. I think my question might be a bit complex, and my expression skills are not very good, so please bear with me...
Here’s the situation: I have a boyfriend and have had sexual intercourse. I would like to ask, why did I have my period twice in one month? The first time came, and then I had a period again after less than a week. When the second period came, I felt pain in the lower left abdomen and a sour sensation when lifting my leg.

Doctor's answer:
First, it should be clarified that the period you mentioned occurring twice a month, with the one in the middle having a relatively lighter flow and a shorter duration of bleeding, is due to the rupture of the ovulatory follicle.

If it is not caused by ovulation, but is a regular menstrual cycle, then you should undergo an ultrasound examination at the hospital to check for conditions such as endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial polyps. If any of these conditions are present, early treatment should be initiated.
