What are the reasons for regular menstruation but less menstrual flow?

Patient's question:

Your period comes on time, but the amount of menstrual flow has been abnormal recently. You've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during your period, and you're very concerned about it affecting your fertility. Additionally, you feel extremely cold and sensitive to cold. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! How long have you been experiencing this situation again? Was your previous menstruation like this? Have you had any uterine surgery? How many days is your menstrual cycle? If your menstruation has been like this for a long time, do a hormone test on the morning of the third day of your period before 9 a.m. on an empty stomach. If you have had uterine surgery and this situation reappears, you can have a hysteroscopy to check if there is uterine adhesions. For gynecological patients, in addition to taking medication, they also need to pay attention to their own care at work, such as paying attention to hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean. Finally, I advise female patients to have regular follow-up examinations!
