Patient's question:
Hello:What are the causes of hypomenorrhea?
Menstrual cycles are considered normal when the bleeding duration is less than 2 days and the menstrual volume is less than 20 milliliters. Hypomenorrhea, like menorrhagia, is an abnormal condition. The causes of hypomenorrhea are similar to those of amenorrhea, though the extent may differ. The main reasons are as follows:
（1）Physiological: Due to genetic or environmental factors.
（2）Pathological:
① Congenital uterine malformation, where the uterus is very small, with only a minimal amount of
Doctor's answer:
Menstrual volume may be reduced due to issues with the endometrium itself, such as endometritis, endometrial tuberculosis causing endometrial lesions, or thinning of the endometrium caused by surgical scraping during an induced abortion. Other factors include poor constitution, crash dieting, anemia, qi and blood deficiency, and endocrine disorders. From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, reduced menstrual volume is related to the deficiency of the liver and kidneys, as well as insufficient qi and blood.Based on your description, as I cannot conduct a face-to-face consultation or take your pulse, a preliminary assessment suggests it may be related to qi and blood stagnation. I recommend consulting a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. You can also take Xuefu Zhuyu Pills and Wuji Baifeng Pills for regulation. It is best to seek medical advice and treatment after consulting with a doctor.
