What should I do if my menstrual flow is light and the color is dark red?

Patient's question:

Over the past few months, I've noticed that my period doesn't arrive on time, and the amount is also less, with very light color. I don't know what to do about it. Could you please advise: What should I do if my menstrual flow is light and the color is dark red?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the current detailed ultrasound examination, there are multiple uterine fibroids. Of course, if the menstrual flow is excessive, it can lead to fatigue and poor mental state. In this case, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment in a timely manner. However, abnormal vaginal discharge with itching is a sign of vaginitis and is unrelated to uterine fibroids. It is advisable to have a vaginal discharge test. In addition to timely treatment for reduced menstrual flow, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can they enhance their immunity and the belief in combating the disease. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care, primarily focusing on light foods and avoiding stimulating and cold foods, believing that this will surely drive away the reduced menstrual flow.
