Patient's question:
Previously, my menstrual cycle was regular, coming exactly once a month, lasting about 5 days, and the amount of blood flow was generally normal. However, a few days ago, I suddenly noticed that each period only lasts for one day, and this has happened several times in a row. I am a bit worried about my health. What should women do if their menstrual flow is too light?Doctor's answer:
Women experience reduced menstrual flow again, and most of the time it is caused by an increase in estrogen or thinning of the endometrium. The specific cause needs to be confirmed through careful examination. First, an ultrasound and a hormone test should be conducted to guide the specific situation, so that a treatment plan can be formulated. Reduced menstrual flow may affect menopause and fertility, so if the symptoms reappear, it is necessary to use standardized and systematic medication for regulation.
