Patient's question:
I have breast hyperplasia and also experience very little menstrual flow, almost every three days (it used to be once a week, and I had an induced abortion once before). Sometimes I have a vague pain in the left abdomen. Is there a necessary connection between these conditions? What is the condition behind the reduced menstrual flow and the vague pain in the left abdomen? How should it be treated? Urgent!!!!First follow-up question: But I have been to the hospital for a check-up, and there were no major issues. The pain in the left abdomen—could it be something like uterine fibroids? What specific tests should I undergo at the hospital?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are several possible reasons for a generally reduced menstrual flow: The most common ones are endocrine-related, such as abnormal hormone secretion or anovulation; alternatively, it could be due to issues with the endometrium itself, such as endometrial tuberculosis causing endometrial lesions or thinning of the endometrium caused by induced abortion or curettage.Suggestions: Go to the hospital to get tested for the six sex hormones and an ultrasound. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment can be administered.
