Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I had a microwave treatment for cervical erosion on November 5. On the 15th, I experienced bleeding that was similar to menstrual blood, but without pain (I usually have pain before my period). I thought it was my period, and the blood color was purplish-red for the first one or two days, then it decreased but still wasn't completely clean. I didn't take it seriously. By the 25th, I felt that my period was really coming again, and the sensation was the same as usual. What is going on? Is this a result of the microwave treatment? What should I do? Thank you for your guidance.Doctor's answer:
Hello, a normal menstrual period is generally around 3-7 days long. If it hasn't completely stopped after more than ten days, it indicates irregular vaginal bleeding, which is closely related to conditions like cervical erosion and pelvic inflammatory disease. It is recommended to first undergo an ultrasound and colposcopy during the bleeding to determine whether the bleeding is from the uterine cavity or the local cervical mucosa. Then, appropriate hemostatic and anti-inflammatory treatment can be administered to avoid prolonged bleeding, which may lead to reproductive organ infections.
