What should I do if there is a small amount of blood after my period?

Patient's question:

45 years old, a few days after the menstrual period is clean, there is still a small amount of blood. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

This is a typical premenopausal symptom, menstrual cycle disorders: changing from a normal menstrual cycle to irregular vaginal bleeding, sometimes with prolonged periods or persistent vaginal bleeding that lasts for 1 to 2 months without stopping; it can also result in heavy vaginal bleeding, leading to anemia, pale complexion, general fatigue, palpitations, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, hemoglobin levels can be significantly reduced. Some may experience repeated bleeding, usually lasting for 1 to 2 years before menstruation completely stops.
During a detailed examination, it is first necessary to rule out bleeding caused by tumors. A comprehensive examination should be conducted, or an endometrial biopsy may be performed. After ruling out tumors, treatment for menstrual disorders during menopause should be administered. Premenopausal menstrual cycle disorders are the most common.
