Patient's question:
Previously, my menstruation was always very regular, at least ending after four or five days. Recently, due to being busy with work, I noticed that my menstrual flow has decreased, sometimes ending in just two days. There is no pain or discomfort, and I am not pregnant. My last health check-up also showed no problems. What should I do about the reduced menstrual flow, which only lasts for two days?Doctor's answer:
It could be caused by irregular menstruation. Work is quite busy and related to excessive stress. Occasional irregular menstruation is not a big problem and can be left untreated. Try to avoid extremely cold and cold foods in daily life. If you used a pregnancy test strip and it showed no pregnancy, the error margin of pregnancy test strips is relatively large and cannot completely rule out pregnancy. It is recommended to have blood tests to check for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to rule out pregnancy before considering medication.
