Patients with irregular menstruation should pay attention to excessive menstrual flow

Patients with irregular menstruation who experience excessive menstrual flow should pay attention to it, because there are many gynecological diseases that can cause heavy menstrual flow, and the vaginal bleeding symptoms caused by some diseases themselves are easily confused with heavy menstrual flow.

Miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy

If your period is delayed for no apparent reason and then comes suddenly and in large quantities, with more blood clots or tissue than usual, and lasts longer than usual, it is likely a small miscarriage. If it is accompanied by panic, dizziness, cold sweats, abdominal pain, or even fainting, it may be a sign of ectopic pregnancy.

Coagulation disorders

Patients with abnormal coagulation system have heavy menstrual flow and long bleeding time because the blood is not easy to coagulate. Excessive menstruation is sometimes the only symptom of female hemophilia patients. Other common blood diseases such as thrombocytopenic purpura, leukemia, aplastic anemia, etc. are also easy to involve the coagulation system and increase menstrual flow.

Reproductive system tumors

The typical symptoms of women with uterine fibroids are menorrhagia and secondary anemia. The initial symptom of cervical cancer is bleeding after sexual intercourse, which is particularly prominent before and after menstruation and can sometimes even cause fatal bleeding.

Improper contraceptive method

Abnormal vaginal bleeding may be related to contraceptive methods, such as the most common intrauterine device, which can improve contraceptive function while also causing problems such as excessive menstrual flow. Improper contraceptive methods can also easily cause pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy and other diseases, which seriously affect women's quality of life and health and life safety, and need to be treated early.
