What is the reason for my light menstrual flow and lower abdominal pain?

Patient's question:

I have a small amount of menstrual flow and lower abdominal pain. The first two periods didn't have abdominal pain, but the flow has always been light. Last night, my period started with a bit of lower abdominal pain, and the flow is still light. How can I take care of this?

Doctor's answer:

If you frequently have a very small menstrual flow, it may be due to endocrine disorders. It is recommended to first go to the hospital for a blood test to check the levels of sex hormones. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be implemented. Blood and Qi deficiency can also lead to a reduced menstrual flow, so it is advisable to consume more foods that boost Qi. For gynecological patients, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to pay attention to personal care training, such as maintaining good hygiene in the private area and avoiding sexual activity during medication.
