What is Menorrhagia?

Menorrhagia is a condition when menstrual bleeding occurs in large amounts (> 80ml of blood) and / or duration that increases (> 7 days) at normal menstrual intervals. Menorrhagia is a condition that generally occurs in women who are just experiencing puberty, or those over 40-50 years.

However, this amount cannot really be used as a benchmark because the amount of menstrual blood in each woman is generally different from each other. Therefore, to make it easier to recognize the signs of menorrhagia, you can observe the amount of menstrual blood that comes out - whether it's unusual or not.

Do heavy periods affect fertility?

Menstrual disorders are often experienced or complained of by women, both in terms of irregular cycles, menstrual periods that are too short or too long, appear bleeding outside the menstrual cycle, abdominal pain before or when menstruation, etc. Menstrual disorders will indirectly affect fertility because women are unable to determine when their fertility. Though to increase the likelihood of pregnancy is necessary to have sex in the fertile period. In addition, the presence of endometriosis, PCOS, myoma uteri will also affect fertility directly.

Diagnosis of Menorrhagia

To find out about menorrhagia , the doctor will ask about the menstrual cycle so far, including the number of menstrual days and how many pads are used in a day. If true menorrhagia, then the doctor will find out the cause of menorrhagia.

Examinations conducted to determine the causes of menorrhagia, include:

• PAP smear. In this examination, cells from the cervix will be taken and examined under a microscope to see the possibility of cancer that causes menorrhagia.
• Endometrial biopsy. Doctors take a little tissue from the uterus to be examined by a pathologist with a microscope.
• Ultrasonography (USG). This examination is needed to see the condition of the uterus, ovaries, and pelvic cavity.
• Hysteroscopy. This examination is done by inserting a type of kemera through the vagina into the uterus so that the doctor can see the condition of the uterus more clearly and thoroughly.

Menorrhagia Risk Factors

There are factors that can increase the risk of menorrhagia. Of the many factors, age is one risk factor that is quite vulnerable. For example, adolescents who have just menstruated and those in perimenopausal conditions are the age group that tends to experience menorogia.
