There are 6 major standards for normal menstruation. Remember these numbers.

A woman's disease can be judged from the amount of menstrual bleeding, the color of menstruation and the accompanying symptoms. Under normal circumstances, a sanitary napkin should be soaked every two hours. If the bleeding is severe, it will lead to anemia. So what are the standards for normal menstruation?

There are 6 major standards for normal menstruation. Is your menstruation healthy?

1. Menarche occurs at the age of 13. Under normal circumstances, women should have their first menstruation at around 13 years old, and menopause will begin at around 49 years old. The general menstrual cycle is 28 to 35 days, with menstruation occurring once a month. Women will not have menstruation during pregnancy and lactation.

2. Menstruation usually lasts 3-7 days. Under normal circumstances, menstruation should last 3 to 7 days, but most people last 4 to 5 days. If menstruation has always been normal, but suddenly there is an unexplained shortening or prolongation of menstruation, it should be suspected that there is a menstrual disorder.

3. 28 days is a menstrual cycle. Under normal circumstances, the menstrual cycle should be 28 days, that is, the interval between two menstrual periods. It is normal to be 7 days early or late, so the interval between two menstrual periods cannot be less than 21 days, but also cannot exceed 35 days.

4. The amount of menstrual blood is about 50 ml. Under normal circumstances, the amount of menstrual blood should reach about 50 ml, but the amount of menstrual blood will be affected by the region, living conditions, physical condition and age. A slight increase or decrease in menstrual blood is normal. If the amount of menstrual blood is less than 30 ml or more than 100 ml, it is abnormal.

5. The color of menstruation is dark red. Under normal circumstances, the color of menstruation should be dark red, lighter at first, then gradually darker, and finally turn into light red and very clean. If the color of menstruation is always purple, bright red or brown, this is abnormal.

6. Symptoms associated with menstruation. Under normal circumstances, the texture of menstruation is neither thin nor thick and it is not easy to coagulate. There are no large amounts of blood clots and obvious foul smells. If the menstrual blood is sticky and thick or like water, or there are large amounts of blood clots, it should indicate anemia or uterine fibroids. During menstruation, it will be accompanied by back pain and lower abdominal pain. These symptoms will be alleviated after the menstruation is discharged. If the symptoms are very obvious and accompanied by body edema and emotional instability before menstruation, this is a pathological condition and you should seek medical attention in time.

The above are the six standards for normal menstruation. In fact, the blood vessels during menstruation are in a normal physiological phenomenon. Don’t worry too much. Just pay attention to life care during menstruation, keep warm and take precautions, avoid eating raw and cold food, and maintain a good attitude.
