Why is there always blood after menstruation?

The duration of a woman's menstruation is limited, generally 3 to 7 days. If the menstruation lasts too long, more than 7 days, it is an abnormal phenomenon and should be taken seriously. During menstruation, you cannot eat cold food or spicy food, drink alcohol, or do strenuous exercise. Why is there blood after menstruation? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. Bleeding caused by intercourse

If a woman has sex right after her menstruation, there are still some broken blood vessels and glandular ducts on the surface of the uterine cavity. If she has sex at this time, the mechanical stimulation will damage the endometrial wound that has not yet been completely repaired, and then cause bleeding from the tiny blood vessels. For the sake of women's health, it is generally recommended to consider having sex within 3 to 5 days after the menstruation ends.

2. Ovulation bleeding

I believe most female friends know that the ovulation period is about a week after menstruation. At this time, the estrogen level drops temporarily. The endometrium loses estrogen support, which may cause part of the endometrium to fall off, and then cause regular vaginal bleeding. Generally speaking, this situation is a normal physiological phenomenon.

3. Gynecological inflammation

In fact, after gynecological inflammation occurs, it will also cause women to have problems with menstrual bleeding. Among them, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervicitis, endometritis, etc. are more common and highly prevalent. Pay attention to distinguish them clearly and treat them symptomatically.

5. What should you pay attention to during menstruation?

1. Pay attention to hygiene and prevent infection: Pay attention to the cleanliness of the external genitalia. It is not advisable to take a bath in a tub during menstruation, but you can take a shower to prevent ascending infection. The sanitary napkins used should be soft, clean and changed frequently.

2. Keep warm and avoid cold stimulation: such as swimming, cold water baths, going into paddy fields, etc. If you are exposed to sudden and excessive cold stimulation during menstruation, it may cause too little menstrual blood or dysmenorrhea.

3. Keep a happy spirit and avoid mental stimulation and mood swings. Avoid overwork, avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, alcoholic and other irritating foods, drink plenty of water, keep bowel movements smooth, and reduce pelvic congestion.
