You should also never ignore the dietary problems in your daily life. Because only by paying attention to your dietary health care can you provide the body with the nutrients it needs.

1. The main reasons are stress and reduced sex life. Women who have lighter but regular periods are less likely to consult their doctors. In fact, modern women lead stressful lives. After giving birth, many women have to work outside in addition to taking care of the children and doing housework. The high pressure, coupled with reduced sex life and insufficient hormone secretion, increases the chance of a reduced menstrual flow.

The second reason is that due to open sexual attitudes and frequent abortions, the endometrium is injured and adhered, resulting in a decrease in menstrual volume. Some patients even experience amenorrhea due to cervical obstruction.

The third is premature ovarian decline. Women whose ovaries decline prematurely or are approaching menopause will have less menstrual blood and often experience progesterone deficiency, meaning they will have a small amount of bleeding for a few days before their period actually starts.

If menstrual bleeding is too scanty, a blood test will usually be performed, and the follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, estrogen, prolactin, and progesterone will be checked at the same time to determine whether the problem is with the ovarian or pituitary hormones. Secondly, measure the basal body temperature and make a chart to observe whether ovulation has occurred or whether progesterone deficiency occurs. Ultrasound examination can also be performed to detect the thickness of the endometrium and whether ovulation has occurred. If the cervix is ​​blocked due to uterine adhesions, a contraceptive device can be inserted after separation with a hysteroscope, followed by hormone treatment for 3 months.

The above are the issues that need attention regarding reduced menstrual volume. Through understanding, we will find that there are actually many reasons that lead to reduced menstrual volume. Therefore, if you want to better solve this problem, female friends need to pay more attention to their reproductive health and seek timely treatment when encountering problems.
