Patient's question:
Since my first menstrual period, I noticed that my menstrual flow was less than others. Most people have it for about four to five days, but mine usually completely stops after three days. When I was younger, I thought having a shorter period was fine, but now that I'm getting married, I'm a bit worried that a low menstrual flow could be a gynecological problem. Will it affect my future fertility?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, a normal menstrual flow of 20 to 50 milliliters is within the normal range, and a menstrual period of 2 to 7 days is also within the normal range. There is no need to worry too much. If the ovarian function is normal, it generally will not affect pregnancy. This situation requires attention to hygiene during the menstrual period, maintaining cleanliness of the perineal area, changing underwear frequently, and preventing infection. The daily treatment for gynecological disease patients mainly involves oral medication. Patients can take some oral medications and supplement with vitamins. Additionally, attention should be paid to diet, consuming light, thin, and soft foods. We hope that gynecological disease patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
