The harm of having menstruation once every two weeks

Basically, both men and women know that normal women have their menstruation once a month, and the cycle is periodic. However, there are still a small number of women who have their menstruation every ten days or so. What is the reason for this? The editor will explain them to you one by one.

Why do I have my period every ten days or so?

Most menstrual periods that occur every ten days or so are ovulation bleeding. This kind of vaginal bleeding that looks like "menstrual period" is actually not the "menstrual period" in the true sense. It bleeds for a shorter time and the bleeding is relatively less.

Ovulation bleeding is actually a physiological phenomenon. At present, many opinions believe that this is related to the changes in estrogen levels during ovulation. When the growth hormone secreted by the pituitary gland reaches a certain level, it will induce the egg to gradually grow and develop. After the mature follicle ruptures, if the body's estrogen level drops sharply to a level that cannot maintain the regrowth of the uterine wall, it can cause necrosis and shedding of the uterine wall, leading to uterine hemorrhage. After ovulation, the progesterone produced by the egg metabolizes a certain amount of female hormones and estrogens, which can quickly repair the ruptured uterine wall and stop bleeding.

Is it normal to have a period every ten days or so?

Is it normal to have a period every ten days or so? You don’t have to compare your menstrual cycle with others, but compare it with yourself. The length of menstrual cycles varies. The key to judging whether it is normal is whether long-term regularity has been established. If it has been like this for one or two years, the body's estrogen is normal, ovulation is normal, and there are no other discomforts, then it is normal.

In addition to the menstruation every 21-35 days and the menstruation during amenorrhea, pregnancy, menopause, and early puberty, there is also a special kind of normal menstruation, which comes once every 50 days, or once every two months, or once every three months, or even once a year. As long as there is a regularity and no discomfort is caused, it is all normal.

Whether menstruation is normal or not also depends on other factors such as menstrual period and menstrual blood color. Regardless of the cycle time, a normal menstrual period should be 3-7 days. A menstrual period of less than 3 days indicates that the corpus luteum function is low and the uterine wall will fall off quickly. Experts point out that in addition to the requirements of cycle time and menstrual period, normal menstrual bleeding is 30-50ml, and the menstrual blood is dark red, neither thin nor thick, not coagulated, without blood clots, and no special smell. In addition, no significant mood swings before and after menstruation and no other obvious discomfort are also criteria for judging whether menstruation is normal. Those who do not meet the above criteria may seek medical treatment. Sometimes you don't need to be too nervous if your menstrual period is irregular, but if it happens repeatedly for more than two cycles, you should consider seeing a doctor.
