5 menstruating symptoms that are very dangerous
1. Prolonged menstruation
Women menstruate only 2 to 3 tablespoons of blood per month. If a woman menstruates more than 5 spoons it is a sign that something is not going well. Abnormal bleeding can cause anemia, since iron is lost when there is too much bleeding.
These can be some causes of excessive bleeding:
Uterine fibroids
Instant abortion
Changing contraceptive pills
Uterine cancer
Coagulation Disorders
Use of certain drugs
2. Off-season bleeding
It is not normal to bleed in the middle of the cycle. “The causes can be something benign, like an irritation in the vaginal area or forgetting to take birth control pills, or it can be something more serious like cancer.”
3. Alteration in the menstrual cycle
The menstrual cycle, on average, lasts 28 days. If you notice a very big change, seek a health professional. It is also important for the woman who entered the menopause to keep an eye. If you went into menopause and stopped bleeding for 12 months and bleeding again is also a sign that you should talk to your doctor.
These are some causes of a change in the menstrual cycle:
Thyroid dysfunction
Disorder in the hypothalamus
Breast-feeding
Obesity
Birth control pills
Stress
Hormonal imbalances
Disease of the uterus
4. Intense pain
It is common for women to feel discomfort and pain during menstruation, since the ovary contracts. But when the pain is very intense and even makes it impossible for the woman to get out of bed, it is a sign that something is wrong. So do not assume that the pain comes only from menstruation, it can be caused by conditions like endometriosis and fibroids. Find a doctor and schedule a Pap smear to find out the true cause.
5. Strong odor
Strong menstrual odors should also be evaluated. The odors may indicate an infection or more serious illness.
Track your menstrual cycle every month and the bleeding pattern of your menstruation. This way, you will be more likely to spot something wrong and contact your doctor for more effective prevention.
