Patient's question:
Doctor, is it normal for my menstrual flow to be less on the third day of my period this month? Previously, it was abundant for the first 5 days, but why is it so little this time?Doctor's answer:
Hello, under normal circumstances, the duration of menstruation is usually 3 to 5 days. On the third day, the menstrual flow is the heaviest, and it gradually increases. The situation you mentioned is quite normal. Menstruation is primarily caused by the shedding and peeling of the endometrium. The more endometrium there is, the greater the menstrual flow. The amount of menstruation varies each month, and the normal range is 80 to 100 milliliters.
