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 endocrine disorders, endometritis, and cervical erosion. Appropriate heat application to the abdomen, oral administration of Gongxuening capsules, and other medications can be used for treatment. If necessary, a gynecological examination should be conducted, such as ultrasound monitoring and cervical examination. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's lives but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Daily, it is important to drink plenty of water and maintain good personal hygiene.
