A 35-year-old woman has a lighter menstrual flow than before. What's the reason and how to treat it?

Patient's question:

Menstrual volume has been low for six months, mainly characterized by reduced menstrual volume, feeling cold before menstruation, and sometimes dizziness.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your menstrual flow is light, there are several possible reasons, such as qi and blood deficiency, blood stasis, or abnormal hormone secretion. These can all lead to a reduced menstrual flow and are not harmful to your health. It is recommended to visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to check for any abnormalities in the uterus and adnexa. You can also have a six-panel sex hormone test on the third day of your period to assess whether your hormone levels are normal. Avoid eating cold or icy foods before and during your period, and pay attention to keeping warm.
