Why does a 16-year-old girl have her period every 15 days?

A 16-year-old girl who has her period every 15 days may be due to excessive mental stress, irregular diet, ovulation bleeding, abnormal uterine development, endometriosis, etc. Targeted treatment should be given according to different causes. If any abnormal symptoms occur in the body, medical attention should be sought promptly.

1. Excessive mental stress:

If a 16-year-old girl is under too much pressure from studying, she will be in a state of tension all the time, which can easily cause endocrine disorders, leading to menstrual cycle disorders and symptoms of menstruation every 15 days. Girls can relieve tension by listening to music, exercising more, singing, etc., which can release pressure and help improve symptoms.

2. Irregular diet:

If a 16-year-old girl has an irregular diet or diets excessively, it will cause malnutrition, which will affect the normal function of the ovaries and lead to menstrual disorders. Diet management should be strengthened, eating on time, not dieting, and paying attention to maintaining a balanced nutritional intake. You can eat kiwis, celery, eggs and other foods appropriately, which can supplement the body with a variety of nutrients and are beneficial to health.

3. Ovulation bleeding:

If a girl has insufficient luteal function or low progesterone levels after ovulation, it can easily lead to a small amount of endometrial exfoliation, causing vaginal bleeding, which the girl may mistakenly think is menstruation. In this case, the bleeding symptoms will stop on their own within 2 to 3 days. It is generally a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require treatment. Just pay attention to daily observation.

4. Abnormal uterine development:

If a girl's uterus develops abnormally, with an arcuate uterus or a septate uterus, it will cause abnormal shedding of the endometrium and cause irregular vaginal bleeding. Under the guidance of a doctor, it can be treated with hysteroplasty, hysteroscopy and laparoscopy combined surgery and other surgical methods. After the operation, the girl should strengthen nutrition and eat eggs, protein powder, chicken breast and other foods appropriately, which can replenish nutrition and energy for the body and facilitate postoperative recovery.

5. Endometriosis

If you do strenuous exercise during menstruation, such as running, skipping rope, etc., it is easy to cause menstrual blood to flow backwards, causing endometrial tissue to grow outside the uterine cavity and uterine muscle layer, causing endometriosis, and then symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and abnormal menstruation. If a girl's dysmenorrhea symptoms are more severe, she can take oral indomethacin capsules, ibuprofen tablets, naproxen tablets and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor to relieve pain. The drugs need to be taken with warm water.

Girls should pay attention to personal hygiene during menstruation, change sanitary products frequently to avoid bacterial ascending infection, and should also pay attention to maintaining a stable mood and avoid the stimulation of negative emotions.
