Why does menstruation last fifteen days

Patient's question:

What is the reason for having a menstrual period that lasts for three or four days with a small amount of flow, then increases for three days, and then decreases again, but the entire cycle continues for fifteen days before it ends?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many reasons that can cause a decrease in menstrual flow, such as medications, endocrine disorders, gynecological inflammation, D&C procedures, or multiple induced abortions. Additionally, it could be due to issues with the endometrium itself. Long-term decreased menstrual flow may lead to amenorrhea or infertility. It is important to consider visiting a hospital for timely examination to identify the cause. Once the cause is clear, active treatment should be initiated. Taking Chinese herbal medicine and deer placenta ointment can be very effective.
