Is there a relationship between less menstrual blood flow and taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Since taking birth control pills, my menstrual cycle has been irregular. After treatment, it improved, but the amount of menstrual blood decreased. This situation has not improved, and I am quite worried about my condition. My family is also concerned.

Doctor's answer:

Conditions such as cervical inflammation, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, improper medication use, or endometrial damage and malnutrition can all lead to a decrease in the quality of a woman's menstruation. If this happens only once, there is no need to worry excessively, as it is likely related to diet, lifestyle, or emotional factors. If this occurs frequently, it is advisable to undergo a gynecological examination to identify the underlying cause and address it accordingly. In the meantime, you can consume more qi-boosting foods such as fish, liver, eggs, and kelp.
