What causes long-term unclean menstruation?

1. Multifunctional abnormal uterine bleeding

There are no obvious organic changes, but it may manifest as continuous bleeding or heavy bleeding. The specific manifestation is that the bleeding time increases significantly after the menstrual period comes. In most cases, the menstrual period lasts about 10 days, and some even last as long as 2 months.

Uterine fibroids growing in different parts of the body will have different symptoms, such as long menstrual periods, heavy menstrual flow, frequent urination, and urgency, or constipation of unknown cause, and even a lump can be felt in the abdomen.

Generally speaking, insufficient progesterone metabolism in progesterone after ovulation or premature contraction of progesterone leading to delayed growth and development of the uterine wall is called luteal insufficiency.

Patients are very likely to experience decreased menstrual cycles, repeated miscarriages or infertility.

4. Impact of contraceptive ring

There is generally a stable period of about half a year after the IUD is inserted. It is normal to feel abdominal discomfort within 3-6 months of having the IUD in place. If you still have a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen, back pain, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and menstrual flow twice as much as usual after 7 months, you should see a doctor.

Drugs destroy the body's own female hormone balance, which may lead to insufficient growth hormone metabolism and female hormone disorder. Patients may experience abnormal menstrual cycles, as well as discomfort such as dysmenorrhea, pain during sexual intercourse, and decreased libido.
