What is ovulatory bleeding? What causes it? What effect does it have on the body

Patient's question:

What is ovulatory bleeding? What causes it? Is it harmful to the body? How is it treated? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: Hello, the factors or causes of ovulatory bleeding include the following points:
(1) Decreased estrogen secretion. During ovulation, a decline in estrogen levels may lead to an inability to maintain normal endometrial growth, resulting in light bleeding. When the corpus luteum forms after ovulation and secretes sufficient estrogen and progesterone, the endometrium is repaired, and bleeding stops.
(2) Luteal phase deficiency. Insufficient secretion of estrogen and progesterone by the corpus luteum fails to support the endometrium. Alternatively, poor endometrial responsiveness may cause light bleeding several days before the expected menstrual period, followed by normal menstruation.
(3) Incomplete luteal regression lasting too long. Due to incomplete luteal regression, estrogen and progesterone levels do not decline quickly, leading to irregular endometrial shedding and bleeding.
