Does iron and calcium deficiency affect early menstruation and reduced menstrual volume?

Patient's question:

Does iron and calcium deficiency interfere with early menstruation and reduced menstrual flow? Can you drink Transform Three Treasures Calcium Iron Zinc Oral Liquid during menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

If you lack calcium, it doesn't significantly interfere with your menstrual cycle, but if you lack iron, it can lead to anemia. Anemia can then cause reduced menstrual flow and delayed periods. Calcium deficiency can affect bones, such as causing joint pain, leg cramps, and so on. If you lack iron, you can take ferrous sulfate, which is also safe to take during your period. I hope my explanation helps you. The recurrence of gynecological diseases poses serious harm to women. Patients should pay attention to follow-up checks after their period, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods.
