What should I do if my menstrual period lasts only 3 days and ends?

Patient's question:

Menstrual flow is light, and it has already ended after 3 days! It is always delayed or early, with a cycle of generally 28-30 days! Previously, my period lasted for 4-5 days, but now it is a bit shorter! On the 3rd day of my period, I had a six-hormone test, and everything was normal. The estrogen level was 98, and the doctor said it was slightly low but also said it was nothing and that medication was not needed! On the 6th day after my period ended, I had an ultrasound and a detailed examination of secretions. The endometrium was 5mm, and everything was normal! However, the menstrual flow is still light, and I often get acne on my face, with a lot on my chin and cheeks, but not on my forehead! I have never been pregnant or had a miscarriage! What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, all the gynecological examinations are normal, and the reduced menstrual flow may be due to the possibility of qi and blood deficiency. If there is a deficiency of both qi and blood, the menstrual flow may decrease again. You can try taking traditional Chinese medicine for regulation for a period of time. In your daily life, eat more foods that replenish qi and maintain a regular schedule, avoiding overtime work. For gynecological patients, in addition to immediate treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care training, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and eating less spicy and irritating foods.
