Patient's question:
Previously, my menstrual cycle was always very normal, but recently I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain and my period has been consistently delayed. During my period, the menstrual cramps are severe. Please ask: If the menstrual flow is light and appears black, how should it be regulated?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume is often reduced and the color may turn white due to various reasons, such as endocrine disorders, gynecological inflammation, changes in the mental environment, anemia, and more. Additionally, it could be related to issues with the endometrium itself, such as endometrial tuberculosis causing inflammation, or conditions like artificial abortion and curettage leading to thinning of the endometrium. If the menstrual volume remains low for an extended period, it may result in amenorrhea or infertility. Therefore, it is important to visit a hospital for a sex hormone six-item check and ultrasound examination to identify the cause. After confirming the diagnosis, active symptomatic treatment should be initiated to avoid interfering with overall health. Gynecological diseases are a common condition that can easily occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of nursing.
