What are the care methods for functional uterine bleeding in adolescence?

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding during puberty usually occurs during adolescence, mainly due to the unstable ovarian development function and inadequate endocrine regulation of girls, which leads to menstrual disorders. So what are the care methods for functional uterine bleeding during puberty in daily life?

Preventing infection

Be sure to closely observe signs related to infection, such as body temperature, pulse, abdominal pain, etc.; observe whether there are any abnormalities in the amount, color, and odor of vaginal bleeding, instruct patients to keep the perineum clean, change underwear frequently, use disinfected sanitary pads, and scrub the vulva at least twice a day; encourage patients to drink more water to achieve bladder irrigation and prevent retrograde urinary tract infection. Appropriately limit visits and avoid contact with patients with infectious diseases; pay attention to keeping warm and avoid getting cold to prevent colds. Draw blood for white blood cell count and classification examination according to the doctor's instructions. If there are signs of infection, contact the doctor in time, use antibiotics reasonably according to the doctor's instructions, and observe their efficacy.

Keep warm

Pay attention to adding or removing clothes and bedding as the weather changes, and avoid excessive cold or heat which may cause endocrine disorders and lead to prolonged menstruation and increased bleeding.

Nutritional guidance

Guide patients to strengthen nutrition, balance diet, and improve overall condition. Eat more foods rich in protein, iron, and vitamins, such as liver, beef, egg yolk, chicken, milk, etc.; eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. Those with heavy menstrual bleeding should take additional iron supplements to correct anemia and improve physical fitness. Recommend a personal diet plan to the patient based on his or her taste and eating habits to ensure adequate nutrition.

Regulating emotions

Avoid excessive tension and mental stimulation, and keep a good mood. Studies have shown that adolescent girls often have greater emotional changes than other periods of their lives, and emotional fluctuations or mental stimulation are one of the important factors that induce functional uterine bleeding in adolescence. Therefore, during this period, parents should pay attention to their children's emotional changes, communicate with them more, understand the changes in their inner world, and help them release negative emotions, so that they can maintain a relatively stable mental and psychological state and avoid emotional ups and downs.

Lifestyle

Achieve a balance between work and rest and avoid overwork. Adolescent girls should learn to exercise self-control and avoid surfing the Internet or entertaining all night long to prevent endocrine disorders caused by irregular life and overwork, which may lead to the occurrence and development of functional uterine bleeding in adolescence.
