Patient's question:
I got my period on the 12th last month. But for the past two days, there have been pinkish, menstrual-like substances on the sanitary pads when I woke up in the morning, and I thought it was starting again. But after using sanitary pads, everything went back to normal. Also, I haven’t been with my husband these days. Why is this happening? It wasn’t like this before?First follow-up question: My period has always been irregular. It often comes 2-4 days early. Sometimes it even comes a whole week early! It’s rarely normal.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Based on your situation, there may be a possibility of ovulatory bleeding. Pay attention to hygiene and rest, and you can wait a few days to see. Most of the time, menstrual disorders are due to functional uterine bleeding, but they can also be caused by conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, or organic lesions like uterine fibroids and endometrial lesions. Therefore, if you notice menstrual disorders, it is important to visit a regular hospital for examination and treatment. Avoid staying up late, excessive fatigue, and irregular lifestyles, as these issues can all lead to menstrual disorders.Recommendation: In daily life, it is recommended to develop good habits and avoid frequently consuming spicy foods. During your period, pay attention to keeping warm, minimize exposure to cold, and maintain good personal hygiene. These measures can help alleviate menstrual disorders.
