Is it normal to have a menstrual health score of 65?

First of all, it must be made clear that there is currently no unified clinical "menstrual health" scoring standard. The scores measured on the market are basically calculated by menstrual management APPs and health institutions based on homemade self-evaluation scales. It is impossible to directly use "normal/abnormal" to draw conclusions.

A while ago, I met a young girl who had just started working. She took a 65-point screenshot of an APP and asked in a panic whether there was something wrong with her ovaries. After careful questioning, I found out that she had just become a full-time employee at that time and had been working overtime for almost three weeks. She stayed up until one or two o'clock every day, and her menstrual period was shorter than It usually lasted two extra days. The first day was so painful that she took half a pill of ibuprofen. The rest of the time she was fine. I told her not to drink the American Ice every day as water. If she got off work early, she should try to lie down before 11 o'clock. This month she came to her aunt for another test and her score immediately rose to 83. There was nothing wrong with her.

Regarding the reference value of this kind of rating, practitioners in different fields actually have quite different opinions. I talked about this with a friend in the obstetrics and gynecology department of a public hospital before, and she felt that you don’t need to take the score too seriously. Many people regard backache, fatigue, and mild dysmenorrhea that occasionally occur during menstruation as “abnormalities” when they self-evaluate. But as long as your menstrual cycle is stable between 21 and 35 days, a single menstrual period lasts for 3 to 7 days, and you don’t have abnormal non-menstrual bleeding or dysmenorrhea that makes you unable to work or go to school normally, even a low score is not considered a pathological problem. However, colleagues who work in women's health management think that this kind of score is quite meaningful. It is equivalent to the body giving you a "little yellow light". Don't be anxious, but don't take it completely seriously. It is better than waiting for problems such as amenorrhea, polycystic cysts, and progressive dysmenorrhea to become apparent later.

If you really get a score of 65, don’t frighten yourself by searching blindly. First, take a look at your recent living conditions: Have you stayed up late for several days in a row? Did you show off your iced milk tea and iced watermelon many times before your period? Have you been so stressed recently by work or exams that you can’t even eat? Adjust these influencing factors and observe the condition during the next menstrual period. Most of them will get better. If your score is below 70 for two or three consecutive months, and your menstrual period is either more than a week early or delayed for more than ten days, and the menstrual cramps are getting worse, then take the time to go to the hospital for a routine gynecological B-ultrasound and six hormone tests. It doesn’t take much time, so it’s good to buy one with peace of mind.
