What's wrong with a long menstrual period?

Patient's question:

Symptom Description: Initially, there was abdominal pain with a large amount of discharge. After seven days, it turned black, then gradually turned yellow. After about ten days, there has been no treatment or improvement. Desired Help: How is it that it has been so long and it has turned black? Is there any good method?

Doctor's answer:

There are many causes of excessive menstrual bleeding,
1. Due to excessive secretion of estrogen by the ovaries, or prolonged stimulation of the endometrium causing it to thicken beyond normal levels, leading to increased blood loss during shedding. This is seen in cases of anovulatory functional uterine bleeding.
2. Organic lesions in the gynecological system. Such as uterine fibroids, uterine polyps, etc.
3. Systemic diseases. Such as leukemia, aplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia, pernicious anemia, liver disease, hypertension, etc.
4. Psychological factors, fatigue, postpartum, intrauterine devices (IUDs), etc., can also cause heavy menstrual bleeding.
5. In some patients, the abundance of spiral arteries in the endometrium or increased vascular fragility can also lead to this condition.
Therefore, you need to undergo a thorough gynecological examination at a regular hospital before treatment. If convenient, you may come to our hospital for examination and confirmation.
