What are the reasons for early and delayed menstruation? Taking contraceptive pills can also cause delayed menstruation
The Menstrual cycle of normal women is about 28 days. If the menstrual cycle is always more than 7 days ahead of time, or even two times in a month, it is also called premenstrual period, also called early menstruation or early menstruation. If it is only 3-5 days ahead of schedule and there are no other obvious symptoms, it belongs to the normal range. Occasionally leading once does not count as premature menstruation.
Reasons for premature menstruation:
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that whether menstruation is normal or not is most related to the liver, spleen, kidney and the Chong Ren pulse. The reasons for early menstruation are mainly closely related to the following two factors.
Reason for Early Menstruation - Element 1: Blood Heat
People with a strong body yang, excessive consumption of spicy food and supplements, emotional depression, and prolonged illness with excessive blood loss are prone to blood fever. If blood gets hot, it goes in vain, and the flow rate also accelerates, leading to an earlier menstrual period. The Danxi Heart Dharma says: A person whose water is not yet ripe has blood and heat. There are differences in blood heat among solid heat, deficiency heat, and liver stagnation heat.
Reason for Early Menstruation - Element 2: Qi Deficiency
People who make dietary mistakes or overwork can easily harm their temper. The spleen is the manager of blood, and the manager is very weak. The manager will inevitably ride the wind to create waves, and menstruation will come early.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the treatment principle of early menstruation emphasizes adjusting treatment. There are various factors that can cause low or delayed menstrual flow, and what are the specific triggers? Generally speaking, apart from early periods, both delayed and early periods are abnormal manifestations of period. Therefore, there are many reasons for delayed menstruation, which are basically caused by the following situations:
For middle-aged and elderly women who have already passed menopause, the delay in menstruation may represent menopause. About 400 eggs have been ovulated and enter the anovulous menstrual period until menopause.
Many women are very concerned about why menstruation is delayed? So, let's first understand the normal Menstrual cycle. The first onset of normal menstruation is called menarche. The age of menarche is mostly between 13 and 15 years old, and it is influenced by various internal and external factors, such as climate, personal constitution, nutritional status, etc.
The first day of bleeding is the beginning of the Menstrual cycle. The interval between the first day of second menstruation is called the Menstrual cycle. Therefore, the calculation of Menstrual cycle should include the time of menstruation. Some women only calculate the cleaning time of menstruation, and may think that the Menstrual cycle is shortened. In clinical practice, some women have abnormal menstruation, and come to menstruation twice a month.
