What should I do if my menstrual flow suddenly decreases?

Patient's question:

In July, the amount of menstrual flow this month suddenly decreased significantly compared to before. Now, the amount in one week is less than what used to be in one day, and there's no noticeable sensation.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many reasons that can cause reduced menstrual flow, such as medications, endocrine disorders, gynecological inflammation, D&C procedures, or multiple induced abortions. Additionally, it could be due to issues with the endometrium itself. Long-term reduced menstrual flow may lead to amenorrhea or infertility. It is important to consider visiting a hospital for timely examination to identify the cause. After the cause is identified, active treatment should be pursued. Taking Chinese herbal medicine and deer placenta ointment can be very effective.
