How to deal with excessive menstrual flow?

Patient's question:

How to deal with excessive menstrual flow? Occasionally accompanied by dysmenorrhea. It's so painful.

Doctor's answer:

Excessive or insufficient menstrual flow is an abnormal sign. Excessive menstrual flow includes two meanings: one is excessive bleeding volume (normal volume does not exceed 100 milliliters), and the other is prolonged menstrual duration (normal duration is within 7 days). Excessive menstrual flow is often caused by irregular endometrial shedding and endometrial hyperplasia, or by conditions such as functional uterine bleeding, uterine fibroids, bleeding disorders, liver dysfunction, etc. It can also be influenced by external factors, such as poor menstrual hygiene, exposure to extreme temperatures, or excessive mental stress.
Therefore, it is recommended that you visit a hospital for a checkup.
