Can Yasmin regulate menstruation?

There are many types of emergency contraception, such as Jin Yuting or Yasmin, but Yasmin can not only allow a girl to use emergency contraception, but also regulate a woman's menstrual period. However, for some girls, due to their own physical reasons, Yasmin has little effect on them. So can Yasmin regulate menstruation? Let the editor explain it to you below.

Can Yasmin regulate menstruation?

This is because Yasmin contains estrogen and progesterone, which can help the uterus and ovaries to metabolize growth hormone and thus regulate the menstrual period.

The method of using Yasmin is to take only one pill a day, take it for 21 days every month and then stop for 7 days. After 7 days of stopping the medicine, you can start taking the next box of medicine. Withdrawal bleeding usually occurs during this period. Generally, bleeding starts 2-3 days after the last pill in the cycle is taken, and the bleeding may not be over when the next box of pills is started.

If you want to delay your period, you can start taking Yasmin 1-2 days before your period starts, and continue taking it for 3-5 days. It can usually delay your period by four or five days.

2 Common questions about taking Yasmin

1. Women who have venous or arterial thrombosis/venous thrombosis (such as deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction) or brain injury, or who have the above medical history, are prohibited from using this product.

2. If vaginal bleeding occurs after taking the medicine for unclear reasons, the medicine should be discontinued.

3. Women who know or suspect they are pregnant are prohibited from using Yasmin.

4. Skin allergy to the specific ingredients of Yasmin or any of its excipients.

Why is my menstrual flow gradually decreasing?

As women age, their ovaries decline, which directly leads to a decrease in menstrual volume. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. Menstruation is essentially the bleeding caused by the shedding of the uterine wall, which changes with the ovarian cycle. If the uterus is hypoplastic, that is, the uterus is still smaller than normal after puberty, then the small uterus will inevitably lead to less shedding of the uterine wall, and the direct manifestation is less menstrual volume. Secondly, damage to the uterine wall caused by uterine wall disease, abortion, curettage, etc. can also lead to scanty menstruation. Since menstruation is the shedding and bleeding of the uterine wall that occurs with the change of the ovarian cycle, if the endometritis gradually falls off, it will cause a decrease in menstrual volume, which will have a negative impact on the female body. If not treated in time, it will even have a negative impact on the female's reproductive function.

The estrogen in women's bodies can stimulate the proliferation of the uterine wall. If the secretion of hormone is abnormal, it will directly affect the proliferation of the uterine wall to not reach the required thickness, resulting in a decrease in menstrual volume. Staying up late for a long time and irregular work and rest schedule can also affect the endocrine system and cause abnormal growth hormone metabolism.

Women's scanty menstrual flow is caused by deficiency of Qi and blood in the body. The body lacks some nutrients needed by the body, which leads to a decrease in menstrual flow. This can also be attributed to a bad daily lifestyle, irregular diet, and long-term staying up late, which can easily lead to a continuous decrease in menstrual flow. Another possibility is the co-continuation of menopause. Generally, women over 45 years old have a slowly decreasing menstrual flow. Since they have already fallen into menopause, a decrease in menstrual flow is a very normal phenomenon.
