Patient's question:
For the past four months, my menstrual period has been light, and the duration has been increasing, reaching 26 days. There are no other symptoms. What kind of help do you need: Understanding the condition and treatment methodsDoctor's answer:
Hello, there are several reasons for a reduced menstrual flow, such as endocrine disorders, gynecological inflammation, low estrogen levels, changes in the mental environment, exposure to cold, anemia, etc. Additionally, it may be due to issues with the endometrium itself, such as endometrial tuberculosis causing inflammation of the endometrium or conditions like artificial abortion and curettage leading to thinning of the endometrium. Long-term reduced menstrual flow may result in amenorrhea or infertility. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination to identify the underlying cause and receive active symptomatic treatment. For gynecological patients, in addition to taking medication, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean at all times.
