Patient's question:
Menstrual volume is small and the duration is long, is it due to luteal atrophy or low estrogen? After giving birth to a baby, each menstrual period is heavy and long-lasting, lasting over ten days. After getting an IUD, the body is not and always has spotting. After removing the IUD, each menstrual period is less in volume, initially okay for the first two days, but then very little for the following days, lasting over ten days each time.Doctor's answer:
There are many factors or causes that can lead to reduced menstrual flow, such as endocrine disorders, gynecological inflammation, changes in the mental environment, cold exposure, anemia, etc. Generally, some blood-activating and blood-stasis-resolving traditional Chinese medicines can be taken to regulate it.
