What is the cause of a small amount of bleeding and slight abdominal pain after menstruation?

Female friends should carefully observe whether their characteristics are consistent with mid-term bleeding. Regular vaginal bleeding occurs during the mid-term, the amount is generally not much, lasts for half a day or a few days, and may be accompanied by mild abdominal pain or backache.

The duration of visible vaginal bleeding can be a few hours, or 3-5 days, but rarely more than 7 days. In severe cases, it can also last until the next menstrual period. Some people bleed very little, or the leucorrhea contains blood, which rarely reaches the amount of menstruation.

Bleeding may be accompanied by distension and discomfort in one side of the lower abdomen, dull pain or obvious pain, and even involve the waist and inner thigh. Symptoms may occur continuously every month or once every other month. Some people experience it for several months a year, while others only experience it once in their lifetime.

Now that we have determined that the bleeding characteristics of ovulation are met, let's first discuss a question, how to calculate the ovulation period. Women observe and record their menstrual cycles for 8 consecutive times to obtain the longest and shortest days of their menstrual cycles. The calculation method is to subtract 18 days from the shortest menstrual cycle on the first day of ovulation and the longest menstrual cycle on the last day of ovulation.

Underlying causes of bleeding

So what is the cause? After the mature follicle ruptures and ovulates, the estrogen level drops sharply and significantly, which cannot maintain the growth of the endometrium, causing local rupture and shedding of the endometrial surface, resulting in breakthrough bleeding. With the formation of the corpus luteum of the ovary, sufficient amounts of estrogen and progesterone are secreted to quickly repair the ruptured endometrial surface and stop the bleeding. Or it is possible that during ovulation, the mature follicles secrete more estrogen, causing endometrial congestion and leakage of red blood cells. It is also possible that when the egg is captured in the fallopian tube fimbria, the blood-containing follicular fluid is sent to the uterine cavity through retrograde peristalsis of the fallopian tube and then flows out of the cervix through the vagina.

What is the reason for bleeding after menstruation is over?

Non-pathological causes

There are many reasons for bleeding after menstruation. The first non-pathological reason is bleeding during ovulation. When women ovulate, the endometrium will tear, so there will be bleeding after menstruation, but the amount of blood is not much, and the bleeding time is relatively short. If the amount of bleeding is large, other pathological factors need to be considered.

Pathological causes

If a woman who has had sex experiences bleeding after her period ends, it can basically be determined to be uterine inflammation. The most obvious manifestation of pelvic effusion is that some blood will flow out within 10 days after the end of menstruation. This situation will also occur if you suffer from cervical erosion.

Bleeding after menstruation can also be considered as a hormone disorder. When considering the situation of bleeding after menstruation, the situation of leucorrhea should also be considered.
