Why does ovulation bleeding occur?

Why does ovulation bleeding occur? Many couples who are actively trying to have a baby will make good use of the ovulation period, but ovulation bleeding makes them very worried. They worry about what is wrong with their bodies, the quality of the fertilized egg, and the normal development of the fetus. So, why does ovulation bleeding occur?

Many female friends may experience ovulation bleeding. Generally, the amount of bleeding is very small, and many people don't even notice it at all. However, some people will have obvious bleeding symptoms, and the severity cannot be generalized.

Ovulation bleeding has both physiological reasons and reproductive system diseases, such as irregular menstruation, cervical polyps, cervical erosion, cervical cancer, endometrial adenocarcinoma, uterine submucosal fibroids, endometrial polyps, etc. Experts say that patients with physiological ovulation bleeding do not need to worry too much, they just need to pay attention to it in their daily lives, such as paying attention to menstrual hygiene, eating less spicy food, and not overworking.

Usually, before ovulation, the estrogen level of women reaches its peak. When ovulation occurs, the mature follicle ruptures, the egg is released, and the estrogen level drops rapidly, causing the endometrium, which is nourished by estrogen and undergoes a hyperplastic reaction, to lose support and cause a little bleeding. Under normal circumstances, this bleeding is extremely short (about 1 to 2 hours), and only red blood cells can be seen in the leucorrhea under a microscope. The duration of visible vaginal bleeding can be a few hours, or 3 to 5 days, but rarely more than 7 days. In severe cases, it can also be continuous until the next menstrual period.

Generally speaking, ovulation bleeding will last for 2-3 days, which is something that every woman may experience, so don't worry. If it is clean within 2-3 days, there is no problem, but if the leucorrhea is accompanied by blood for more than 7 days, and the amount of bleeding is large, then it needs to be taken seriously and timely treatment is required if necessary.
