What to eat when menstrual bleeding is light?

Patient's question:

Previously, my period flow was quite heavy, but now it has started to decrease with each cycle. What should I eat when my period flow is light?

Doctor's answer:

Theoretically speaking, if the menstrual flow is excessively heavy, it is definitely abnormal, and there may be a possibility of uterine fibroids. The first step is to conduct a thorough examination to confirm this. However, if the menstrual flow is gradually increasing, it is more likely caused by thinning of the endometrium. It is necessary to perform a detailed ultrasound examination of the uterine appendages, which is a mandatory procedure. Then, it is determined whether estrogen levels need to be adjusted.
