Menstruation is a unique physiological manifestation of women, and it has a certain periodicity. If there are abnormalities in the menstrual cycle, it indicates that health is also threatened. Due to the different physical conditions and lifestyle habits of each woman, there may be abnormalities in the menstrual cycle time. So how many days does menstruation last at most and at least?
Menstruation in women is cyclical because it is mainly accompanied by periodic changes in the ovaries, leading to periodic shedding and bleeding of the endometrium in women. The usual menstrual cycle for women is 28 to 30 days, with each cycle lasting 2 to 7 days and a menstrual flow of approximately 30 to 50ml. Therefore, it can be seen that menstruation usually lasts for a maximum of 7 days and a minimum of 2 days.
Under normal circumstances, when a woman's menstrual cycle begins, the maximum bleeding time is usually on the 2nd to 3rd day, and the amount of menstrual bleeding varies from person to person, but it cannot exceed 70ml at most and 20ml at most. If the amount of menstrual bleeding reaches 80ml, it is considered excessive menstrual bleeding, and if it is below 20ml, it is considered insufficient menstrual bleeding.
For the sake of women's health, whether it is excessive or insufficient menstrual flow, it has a significant impact on women's health. Therefore, when abnormal menstrual cycles and flow are detected, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner, receive correct treatment based on the examination results, and avoid aggravating the abnormal situation, which may threaten women's physical health.
