What is the reason for a woman having a small amount of menstrual flow?

Patient's question:

Previously, my period was always very normal, but recently I've been feeling lower abdominal pain, and my period has been delayed. During my period, the menstrual cramps are severe. Please ask: What could cause a decrease in menstrual flow?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, recently your menstrual flow has been very little, which may indicate a menstrual disorder. It is recommended to first undergo relevant examinations such as ultrasound and hormone tests to identify the factors affecting your menstruation, and then take targeted measures for nourishment and treatment. In your case, it is considered an abnormal condition caused by excessive nutrient consumption due to pregnancy. It is advised to enhance daily dietary nutrition, digesting high-quality protein-rich foods and vitamin-rich foods. The amount of menstrual flow varies from person to person, generally ranging from 20 to 100 milliliters. It is normal to change sanitary pads or paper 3 to 5 times a day. The duration of each menstrual period is approximately 3 to 7 days. There are two major categories of factors that can disrupt menstruation: 1. Neuroendocrine dysfunction and endocrine imbalance: such as excessive mental tension, changes in the environment and climate.
