What should I do if I have an unusually heavy period?

The term “great aunt” generally refers to a woman’s menstrual period. Excessive menstrual flow may be related to endocrine abnormalities, changes in birth control devices, endometrial lesions, etc. It is necessary to find out the cause of excessive menstrual flow before taking corresponding measures.
1. Endocrine abnormality: If you have stayed up too late at night, been under too much stress or emotional tension recently, it may lead to endocrine imbalance, which may affect your menstruation and lead to excessive menstrual flow. Occasionally, excessive menstrual flow does not need to be treated, and you can return to normal by paying attention to your diet, regulating your work and rest schedule and taking proper exercise.
2. Change of birth control device: If the position of intrauterine device is shifted downward or the device is detached, it may lead to heavy menstruation. It is necessary to take ultrasound examination to clarify the current status of the device, and to restore the normal position of the device or to remove it.
3. Endometrial lesions: If the endometrium has polyps, tumors, hyperplasia and other lesions, it may lead to abnormal menstruation, which requires ultrasound, curettage, hysteroscopy and other examinations to clarify the disease and then target the disease for treatment, and menstruation can be restored to normal after the disease is cured.
To sum up, there are many reasons why menstrual flow is particularly heavy, and timely examination and treatment should be carried out to avoid anemia caused by excessive loss of menstrual blood, which affects the health of the body.
