For two consecutive months, my menstrual flow has been light. What could be the reason?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know what's going on, but I've had very little menstrual flow for two consecutive months. Basically, it's only about three days each time, and by the third day, there's barely any blood left, just a small amount of black residue coming out. I'm quite worried and afraid that something might be wrong. I'd like to consult about what could be causing such a significant decrease in menstrual flow for two months in a row.

Doctor's answer:

A decrease in menstrual flow is closely related to the endocrine hormones in the body. This condition is greatly influenced by regular diet, sleep patterns, and mental stress. It is recommended to take some medication for regulating menstruation and herbs that tonify Qi and nourish blood for treatment. Consume more foods rich in iron, such as jujubes, goji berries, and longans, in your daily diet. Learn to manage your emotions, avoid excessive stress, and do not stay up late.
