What should I do if my menstrual flow is too little?

Patient's question:

1. Menstrual volume is too little (it has been reduced since 2010 and is even less now, with two episodes of amenorrhea in between). Currently, dysmenorrhea is severe accompanied by lower back pain, night sweats, and sticky, unsatisfactory menstrual flow with blood clots;
2. Gynecological inflammation with excessive yellowish discharge, pelvic inflammation with fluid accumulation; since a natural miscarriage in 2014, there has been mycoplasma infection.

Doctor's answer:

Menstrual hypomenorrhea is commonly caused by insufficient estrogen secretion from the ovaries, poor endometrial development, multiple induced abortions, rough uterine scraping that damages the endometrium, contraceptive medication, physical weakness, anemia, and other reasons. For your condition, it is recommended to first visit a hospital for an ultrasound or sex hormone test to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment.
Irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to find the root cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
