Patient's question:
Patient, female, 46 years old. This month's menstrual period has come for more than twenty days, but the menstrual blood is thin and intermittent, with fluctuations in amount. Taking traditional Chinese medicine has not shown improvement. Previously, her menstrual cycle was basically normal, and there were no factors such as sexual activity during this period. Please reply, thank you!!Doctor's answer:
Hello, excessive menstrual bleeding or prolonged duration. Common general causes include uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps, endometrial hyperplasia, endometriosis, etc. If the examination does not reveal any organic lesions, functional uterine bleeding should be considered. This refers to abnormal uterine bleeding caused by endocrine regulatory system disorders, with no obvious organic lesions in the internal and external reproductive organs. It is the most common type of menstrual disorder. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to identify the cause and receive timely treatment.
