What is the reason for menstruation lasting for a full 10 days?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Female
Patient Age: 28
Why does the menstrual period only last for 10 days?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is important to consider the possibility of diseases such as endometritis and hormonal imbalances, as well as the possibility caused by cervical erosion. Applying warm compresses to the abdomen and taking medication such as Gongxuening capsules for treatment is appropriate. If necessary, it is recommended to visit a gynecological department for examinations such as ultrasound monitoring and cervical examinations. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal discharge examination at the gynecological department of a hospital to identify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. It is also important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
