Patient's question:
I am over 30 years old. Since having a child, every time my period doesn't stop after a week. Sometimes it lasts for half a month.Doctor's answer:
Normal menstrual duration is 2 to 7 days, with a minority lasting 3 to 5 days. If menstrual duration exceeds 7 days, it is considered menstrual extension. Menstrual extension should be taken seriously, as menstrual irregularities not only affect women's health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecology department in a hospital for a gynecological examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
