Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
Heavy menstrual bleeding with blood clots at age 45 may be caused by menstrual disorders or other factors. Due to the influence of physiological, psychological, and environmental factors, female hormone levels can become imbalanced. If the ovaries secrete excessive estrogen, it can stimulate endometrial hyperplasia. When the endometrium sheds, it leads to heavy menstrual flow and blood clots. In such cases, women should replenish nutrients, adjust their mindset, reduce stress, improve their environment, and stabilize their endocrine levels.
