I am the one who makes you rejoice and makes you worry
Great aunt
Without your permission
It breaks into your life
Once a month, always want to meet you
But, actually, I've always been in your body
It was only sealed in the endometrium
Time flies
Adolescence has crept in
At this time, the various hormones in the body reach sufficient levels
The endocrine axis starts working
Promotes periodic growth and shedding bleeding of the uterine lining
Forms menstruation
Probably starts when you're 12 years old
Finally, I can see you once a month
If after I was 16, I haven't shown up yet
Be wary:
Abnormal development of the reproductive tract or reproductive endocrine disorders
Need to see a doctor as soon as possible
I am a stranger to you
To me, you are familiar with me
More than a decade of thoughts
Finally start to participate in your life
Accompany you for more than thirty years
Witness your journey from teenage girl to mother
I know my presence
It brings you trepidation and uneasiness
But it's the way to growth
A journey we can't hide from
I want you to know me a little more
Don't worry about me all the time
Add to your own annoyance
In the following situations, stop scaring yourself
01 Color
I wasn't bright red, but slightly dark
Menstrual blood is formed by a mixture of arterial and venous blood
Don't get too hung up on it
02 Length of stay
A day is too short, and more than a week you will be anxious
3-7 days is my empathetic stop
03 Menstrual blood volume
Coming more and coming less will make you panic
In fact, between 5-80 ml is normal
Take a deep breath and relax a bit
04 Punch card cycle
I'm just starting out, and the hormone feedback mechanism isn't mature enough
There may be abnormal follicle development, or no ovulation
It will take 5-7 years to gradually become regular
However, my working hours will be a bit willful
28 days is not my standard working hours
It is normal to work every 21-35 days
As long as it's regular
Don't scare yourself
05 Blood clots
Blood clots have nothing to do with Gong Han
Sometimes, I come out with a blood clot because
I have a lot of weight and run fast
There are not enough anticoagulant substances in the body
There are also a small number of blood clots that are fragments of the endometrium that have fallen off
Don't worry about me, it's normal
However, if there are more blood clots, long-term blood loss leads to anemia,
You need to see a doctor as soon as possible
06 Gone and here it is
Ming said goodbye
But a week later, brown discharge appeared
Don't panic
This is bleeding during ovulation
Occasionally a little is normal
If it happens frequently, it is necessary to see a doctor in time
In fact, I want to go, but I don't actually want to stay
07 Stomach pain, waist pain, short temper, weakness
I really can't blame that
This is my roommate, prostaglandins, who is demonizing
prostaglandin
Menstruation occurs during the thickening of the endometrium
It is a regulator of the endometrium
But it can also cause uterine contractions
The blood vessels are squeezed
It may cause uterine ischemia and hypoxia
This is the leading cause of primary dysmenorrhea
It also acts on the intestines and promotes peristalsis
Some girls have diarrhea during menstruation
It is one of the "perpetrators"
Tips:
Secondary dysmenorrhea: generally caused by gynecological diseases,
For example: endometriosis, adenomyosis, etc
When your dysmenorrhea has the following characteristics, see a doctor in time:
There was no or little dysmenorrhea before, and it didn't start until the age of 25
Dysmenorrhea is progressively worse, that is, more and more painful than each time
Dysmenorrhea is severe, and even taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen) is useless
The pain begins before the menstrual period and peaks in the first few days of menstruation, causing serious life with bloating, lower abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms
This condition is common in young and middle-aged women who need to go to the hospital for a specialist consultation and determine the specific cause of the disease through ultrasound and other tests

08 Farewell
More than thirty years, once thought it was a long time
In the blink of an eye, it was like a world away
It was time for the great aunt to say goodbye
The average age of menopause in women is around 49 years
Hot flashes, insomnia, irritability, and even forgetfulness can occur
You can go to the hospital to discuss the treatment measures with the doctor
If vaginal bleeding occurs again after menopause
Be vigilant and seek medical attention in a timely manner
This can be a sign of a gynecological disease
Great aunt, come back to the world
Meet you
Parted ways with you
Silently guarding you
Tasted your sweetness
Seen your sadness
Completed a woman's poem
I hope the girls understand the love of "big aunt"
Take care of yourself
Also hope all men read her
Love her more
