Patient's question:
Menstrual flow is too little, sometimes only for two days, what should I do? Can I regulate it with traditional Chinese medicine?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned, where menstrual flow is light, falls under the category of abnormal menstrual volume in menstrual irregularities. It may be caused by abnormal levels of sex hormones, excessively thin endometrium, or anemia.Recommendation: Seek medical attention as soon as possible. On days 2–5 of your menstrual cycle, have blood drawn on an empty stomach to check for six sex hormones to understand whether your hormone levels are normal. Before your period, undergo a B examination to assess the thickness of your endometrium. Also, check your blood count to confirm whether you have anemia.
After the examination results are clear and a diagnosis and underlying cause are confirmed, you can then choose an appropriate treatment plan.
