Girls who have just experienced their first menstrual period have limited knowledge about menstruation, so they are not very clear about the specific duration of their menstrual cycle. Sometimes when the menstrual period is too long or too short, one often worries about whether their health is affected. So, how many days does a woman's menstrual cycle usually last?
For female friends with regular menstrual cycles, the interval between periods is 28 to 30 days, and the physiological days during this period are 5-7 days. If a woman's menstrual cycle and duration are both within this range, it indicates that her physical health is good.
But if there is menstrual disorder, such as too many days of early or late menstruation, too little or too much menstrual flow, too early or late onset of menstruation, or continuous menstrual bleeding, it indicates that there is a problem with physical health, mainly caused by endocrine disorders.
Moreover, long-term endocrine disorders pose a significant threat to physical health. Therefore, in cases of unstable menstruation, excessive or insufficient menstrual flow, as well as long or short menstrual periods, it is necessary to go to the hospital for detailed examination and take necessary measures to regulate the body based on the examination results. If the condition is severe, medication treatment may also be necessary.
In addition, women should keep warm during their menstrual period to avoid catching a cold. Especially for some women who often experience dysmenorrhea, applying hot water to the abdomen with a hot water bag and drinking more hot water or brown sugar ginger water can effectively relieve dysmenorrhea and alleviate abdominal discomfort.
