After entering puberty, women's ovaries gradually mature and begin to secrete female hormones, causing changes in the endometrium and resulting in menstruation. Generally, a menstrual flow of 30 milliliters is too little, and 180 milliliters is too much. Normally, it should be 60 milliliters each time. This requires regular attention to the usage of sanitary pads, with no more than two packs per cycle. If using three packs of sanitary napkins each time is not enough, and each sanitary napkin is soaked, it is considered excessive menstrual bleeding. Can excessive menstrual flow lead to anemia?
Excessive menstrual flow can cause anemia, and female friends may feel tired, weak, sore, and have poor sleep quality during their menstrual period, which can also affect their physical fitness. They are prone to contracting wind cold during seasonal changes, indicating the great harm it can cause.
Excessive menstrual flow may be caused by inflammation, which refers to gynecological inflammations such as vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, or endometriosis. These gynecological diseases can cause local blood vessels to become very fragile, leading to excessive blood flow and difficulty in clotting during menstruation, resulting in heavy menstrual flow and longer menstrual periods.
Many women do not pay too much attention during sexual activity. Unclean sexual activity can easily lead to infection or incorrect placement of the intrauterine device, which can cause a shortened menstrual cycle and a significant increase in menstrual flow. This may also be accompanied by other conditions such as bleeding after menstruation. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and sexual hygiene in order to ensure safety.
