What should I do if my menstrual period is irregular, with very little blood flow and an abnormal timing?

Patient's question:

Every time I have my period, the flow is very light, lasting only two or three days, and I don't even need large sanitary pads. The amount is so minimal, there's no flow at night, and sometimes I might not have a period for a whole month. The timing is also irregular. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

If the menstrual flow is less than 30 milliliters every month, it is considered menstrual hypomenorrhea. It is recommended that you check with a hospital based on your own situation, undergo a detailed gynecological ultrasound examination, and have a sex hormone six-item test. Based on the examination results, appropriate treatment should be taken. The recurrence of gynecological diseases severely threatens women's health. Patients need to pay attention to follow-up examinations after menstruation in daily life, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive professional treatment.
