What's the situation with less menstrual flow and longer duration, and how should it be handled?

Patient's question:

Hello, I am 24 years old this year. I don't know why my menstrual flow is very little but the days are longer. I want to ask what problem does a small menstrual flow with longer days indicate? What could be the reason? Do I need to go to the hospital for a check-up? What should I pay attention to in daily life?

Doctor's answer:

Considering it may be menstrual irregularity, it is recommended that you visit the gynecology department for a blood test to check the six sex hormones and undergo a color Doppler ultrasound to examine the endometrial condition. After a clear diagnosis, take medication under the guidance of a doctor to regulate and nourish the body. Long-term menstrual volume reduction can affect fertility, so timely treatment is necessary. During menstruation, pay attention to preventing abdominal cold and avoid catching a cold. Do not come into contact with cold water and avoid eating extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Gynecological diseases are a condition that is prone to occur. During medication, women should pay close attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients maintain clean external genitalia and change underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery.
