The normality of a woman's menstrual cycle can to some extent reflect her physical health status. Therefore, if there is excessive menstrual flow accompanied by blood clots during menstruation, it should be taken seriously and checked and treated at the hospital as soon as possible. So what's going on with excessive menstrual flow and blood clots?
If there is excessive menstrual bleeding and blood clots, it may be caused by submucosal uterine fibroids, which can affect uterine contractions during menstruation, leading to increased menstrual blood and larger blood clots. It may also be inflammation of the endometrium, which can lead to this condition, but inflammation of the endometrium is usually accompanied by lower abdominal pain.
In addition, if there are lesions in the endometrium itself, such as simple or complex endometrial hyperplasia, or atypical hyperplasia in clinical practice, it may lead to excessive menstrual flow and blood clots. It is recommended to undergo a B-ultrasound to confirm and rule out the possibility of uterine fibroids.
If it is ruled out after examination that it is not uterine fibroids, diagnostic curettage can be performed on the 2nd to 3rd day of menstruation, and the scraped tissue can be sent for testing to determine the problem before treatment is given. Don't put too much pressure on yourself and make yourself overly anxious until the cause is confirmed.
