Can you get pregnant if your menstrual period is light and dark?

Patient's question:

My previous menstrual cycle was normal. But in the past few months, I don't know why the amount has decreased and the color has turned white. Now I'm married and want to have a child. Hello doctor, can I get pregnant with a light and white menstrual flow? Should I see a gynecologist first?

Doctor's answer:

A very small amount of menstrual flow can affect pregnancy, reducing the chances of conception. Common reasons include endocrine disorders or insufficient qi and blood, which can be addressed by first regulating the menstrual cycle. Avoid consuming excessively cold foods, as exposure to cold can cause the menstrual flow to turn black. Drinking more warm water can enhance metabolism, and consuming iron-rich foods can help replenish qi and strengthen the body. Gynecological diseases are prone to recurrence. During medication, women should pay close attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay extra attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet as the foundation.
