What’s wrong with the long period?

The term “vacation” is generally used to refer to a woman’s menstrual period. The long period may be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine fibroids, irregular shedding of the uterine lining and so on.
1. Pelvic inflammatory disease: If you don’t pay attention to the pubic hygiene, the infection may go up to the pelvis and cause pelvic inflammatory disease, and the onset of menstruation may show the increase of menstrual flow, prolongation of menstruation, and there may also be lower abdominal pain and increase of vaginal secretion.
2. Uterine fibroids: when the fibroids are close to the endometrium, the area of endometrium increases, which may affect the normal contraction of uterus, and then lead to the symptom of prolonged menstruation.
3. Irregular shedding of uterine lining: This is a kind of ovulatory abnormal uterine bleeding. Due to the dysfunction of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis regulation, it causes luteal atrophy incompleteness and continuous secretion of progesterone, so that the endometrium can’t be shed intact, which leads to prolonged menstruation time and symptoms of heavy bleeding.
There may be other reasons for the long period, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, complete the relevant examinations, clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional doctor, and take standardized treatment methods.
