Scanty monthly browns are the causes

As you know, in gynecology there is a certain kind of norm that characterizes such a phenomenon as menstrual discharge. So, according to her, the monthly should be:

• absolutely painless or slightly painful;
• last no more than 5 days;
• the cycle time must be within 21-35 days;
• the amount of bloody discharge should not exceed 150 ml.

However, in practice, this is rare, and women, for certain reasons, face some or other irregularities in the cycle. So, often representatives of the weaker sex make complaints to the doctor for scanty monthly browns, the reasons for their appearance, they have no idea. Let's try to understand this violation and tell you why the monthly can be scarce and have a brown color.

Because of what and when can there be neobylye monthly brown?

In gynecology, this kind of disorder, when a woman has scanty menstrual discharge, the color of which can be from light brown to dark brown and even black, has been called hypomenorrhea.

As a rule, such a violation is noted in two age periods of a woman: during the formation and extinction of the reproductive function. This, above all, is associated with a violation of a process such as ovulation. If we talk directly about girls who are experiencing the development of the menstrual cycle, then they have a similar phenomenon can be observed periodically for 1-1,5 years, because it takes that much time to normalize the cycle.

Also, uninvolved menstruation may be noted in women in the climacteric period, when the ovaries function fading. Hormones are produced less, as a result of which ovulation does not occur in every cycle, and sometimes completely disappears.

The cases described above do not require correction. have a physiological character. However, it is still worthwhile to seek medical advice at this time to rule out a disease with similar symptoms.

What diseases can be the cause of scanty brown menstruation?

First and foremost, the doctor must determine which particular form of hypomenorrhea (primary or secondary) takes place in a particular situation. So, with the primary, scanty monthly are noted almost from the moment of their beginning. As a rule, in such cases, girls are diagnosed with congenital pathologies of the reproductive organs.

In the secondary form of the disorder, women can not understand why they had a mild and dark-brown period, since up to a certain point everything was normal. The reason for this change in case of this violation can be:

1. Dysfunction of the ovaries or pituitary gland. It is these 2 glands that are responsible for the normal course of menstruation and the regularity of the cycle. To the dysfunction of the ovaries, in turn, can lead to inflammatory processes, stress, overstrain, abortion, abnormalities of the genital organs, diabetes mellitus, etc.
2. Inflammatory and infectious processes in the uterus. Often an explanation of why women have mild brown discharge instead of menstruation, there may be such diseases as endometriosis, uterine fibroid, endometrial infertility, cervical cancer, etc.
3. Genetic disorders can also affect the volume of menstrual blood and its color. With a high degree of probability, we can say that if a close relative of a woman (mother, grandmother), noted this, then she will have the same thing.
4. Hormonal failure may also be the cause of scant brown discharge.

In addition to the above, it is also worth mentioning that such violations are contributing to the development of hypomenorrhea, such as:

• anemia;
• severe weight loss;
• change in climatic conditions;
• lack of vitamins in the body.
