Is it normal to have very little menstrual flow?

Patient's question:

There has been this phenomenon before, but it usually lasted for more than half a month, but this time it has been nearly a month. My waist is also a bit sore.

Doctor's answer:

There are many factors that affect menstruation, common ones include abnormal ovarian function, uterine diseases, cavity diseases, endocrine dysfunction, etc. It is best to perform an electrochemical luminescence immunoassay for six hormones within three to five days of menstruation to understand the endocrine status. Combined with a four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound of the vagina to identify any abnormalities in the uterus and ovaries, diagnose the cause, and then treat accordingly. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects women's physical health but also leads to gynecological diseases.
