If the menstrual period is still not clean after about twenty days, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Hello, my daughter's menstruation hasn't stopped after nearly twenty days. She has taken both Chinese and Western medicine, but it hasn't helped. Her ultrasound was normal.

Doctor's answer:

Normal menstrual duration is 3 to 7 days, with a minority lasting 3 to 5 days. If menstrual duration exceeds 7 days, it is considered menstrual prolongation. There are many causes of menstrual prolongation, such as: uterine fibroids, endometritis, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, ovarian diseases, endocrine disorders, etc. It is recommended that you visit a hospital in time for ultrasound and hormone level tests to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
