Menstrual flow is a direct manifestation of a woman's health, but many women have different ideas about the amount of menstrual flow. Some women believe that the process of menstruation is a process of detoxification in the body, thinking that the more menstrual flow, the better, and the more toxins the body will excrete. However, some people believe that a smaller menstrual flow is better, otherwise anemia will occur. So is it better to have more menstrual flow or less?
Excessive or insufficient menstrual flow is abnormal. The normal menstrual flow is usually 30 to 80ml. If the menstrual flow is excessive, women may experience anemia or physical weakness. However, if the menstrual flow is relatively low, it may be caused by a decrease in estrogen secretion levels. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used to regulate it according to the specific situation.
The normal menstrual cycle for women is around 5-7 days. If the menstrual flow is only 1-2 days, it is definitely abnormal. If the menstrual cycle has not ended for more than 7 days, it may be caused by factors such as IUD insertion or taking contraceptive pills. If a woman who has an intrauterine device (IUD) has excessive menstrual flow, she should promptly go to the hospital for examination to see if the position of the IUD is offset. If it is offset, relevant measures should be taken.
In general, excessive or insufficient menstrual flow is considered an abnormal phenomenon, which is a manifestation of menstrual disorders. We must pay attention to nutritional supplementation in our daily lives, and at the same time, we cannot excessively supplement qi and blood, because if qi and blood are too sufficient, it may cause excessive menstrual flow.
