Patient's question:
I usually have a pretty normal menstrual cycle every time. However, about one to two weeks after my period ends, there might be some light bleeding for a few days. Sometimes I see blood stains on my underwear, but I’m not sure if this is normal. Does this kind of bleeding affect health?Doctor's answer:
Your symptoms are likely considered to be ovulatory bleeding, which may be related to decreased estrogen secretion, insufficient luteal function, incomplete luteal regression lasting too long, or delayed endometrial repair. If the bleeding duration is prolonged or accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal pain, it is important to seek medical attention at a gynecology department for relevant examinations to rule out conditions such as cervical erosion, cervical polyps, endometrial lesions, uterine fibroids, and other diseases. This bleeding will not affect your physical health.
