Patient's question:
Some people say that bleeding during ovulation is harmless, so what if it's bleeding every day? When will it end? Will it delay my menstrual period? Could I be pregnant? Or could it be an ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Uncertainty! During the mid-cycle, i.e., the ovulation period, due to a transient decline in estrogen levels, the endometrium loses hormonal support and experiences partial shedding of the endometrium, leading to regular vaginal bleeding, which is known as ovulatory bleeding. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is referred to as "intermenstrual bleeding."Treatment
1. Western Medicine Treatment: Diethylstilbestrol 0.25–0.5 mg per day, starting 3 days before ovulation and stopping 2–3 days after the bleeding stops.
2. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment: Liuwei Dihuang Wan, Gujing Wan, and Xuefu Zhuyu Wan.
Prevention and Care
1. Pay attention to menstrual and postpartum health care, maintain external genital hygiene, and prevent pelvic infection.
2. Keep a calm mood and avoid excessive stress.
