    Menstruation is a very cyclical physiological phenomenon. Generally speaking, the normal menstrual cycle is between 28 and 35 days. When your menstrual cycle is shorter than 28 days, or longer than 35 days, it is an abnormal menstrual period. There are many women who are already troubled by their menstrual cycles. Their menstrual periods did not end for a long time before and now they are here. So, what is the reason why my aunt comes again every ten days? Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

    Why did my aunt come again after ten days?

    Women come to have a uterine period because the estrogen and progesterone in the body withdraws, resulting in the process of shedding of the lining of the uterus and mixing blood into the vagina. Generally, the normal menstrual cycle is about 28 to 30 days. Due to differences in physical environment, it is normal for the menstrual cycle to be advanced or delayed by a week, so the menstrual cycle is between 21 and 35 days. For a normal menstrual cycle, but the aunt comes again every ten days, it is usually an abnormal menstrual cycle. You need to consider whether the symptoms are caused by uterine and ovarian secretion imbalance, or premature ovarian failure, etc. It is best to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination with B-ultrasound and six hormones to diagnose the actual cause, and then carry out symptomatic treatment based on the results.

    Under normal circumstances, the menstrual cycle is calculated from the first day of two adjacent menstrual cycles. A menstrual period must be at least once every 23 days before it is considered normal. That is to say, the normal duration of menstruation is 30 days. If it occurs early and within a week, it is considered normal. It would definitely be abnormal if it came 10 days early. In addition, the menstrual period is generally equivalent to a period of more than ten days. A period of more than ten days must be determined by the amount of the second period. For some people, this stage is equivalent to the ovulation period of people with regular menstrual cycles. During ovulation, the body's estrogen level is low, and ovulation bleeding will occur. The bleeding is more likely to be during ovulation. If the menstrual flow is as heavy as the menstrual flow, it is not ovulation.

    Ovulation bleeding occurs in the middle of two menstrual periods. The blood streaks are small and usually come back in two or three days. There are no other accompanying symptoms of this condition. Bleeding once or twice is not a big problem. Considering that estrogen in the body is transient, if there are excessive blood levels, it is the same as normal menstrual flow, which is abnormal. Some people will experience this kind of withdrawal bleeding after taking emergency contraceptive pills, and they will have a baby again every 10 days. If this is not the reason, considering endocrine imbalance, you must go to the hospital for relative examination, search for the cause, and then treat it with medication.

    What symptoms did you have before coming to your aunt?

    1. The secretion changes significantly before the menstrual period. The most obvious symptom is excessive leucorrhea. Before pregnancy, there was pelvic congestion, and the blood volume in the cervix and vagina increased, so more secretions were metabolized than usual.

    2. It can be a little light pink close to menstruation, and then slowly turns into blood, which is the menstrual period. After menstruation, the blood volume in the uterus and vagina returns to normal, and the secretions also decrease.

    3. Edema usually appears one week before menstruation, and it may also be aggravated before menstruation. Gain weight due to edema. Along with edema, there may also be headache, runny nose, heavy lower limbs, abdominal distension, constipation, etc. Breast pain can occur before menstruation or after menstruation. There are small nodules in the breast, which are painful to touch. They feel relieved after menstruation, but the swelling and pain reappear before the next menstruation.

    4. Premenstrual discomfort, such as pelvic sinking feeling, back pain, headache, breast swelling, edema, upset, anger, etc. It is generally mild and does not require treatment. However, some women have severe premenstrual symptoms that affect their work and life, which is called premenstrual syndrome.

    5. Premenstrual syndrome usually appears 7 to 14 days before menarche, and is most severe 2 to 3 days before menstruation. The symptoms subside or are significantly relieved after menstruation. Discomfort is in all aspects and varies from person to person. Some women have very obvious edema, some women have more significant breast pain, and some women have mainly psychiatric symptoms.
