What to do if the menstrual flow is getting less and less at 38 years old

The amount or color of menstrual blood should not change with age, so you can still find problems through self-examination. Generally, menstrual problems are reflected in the body. So what should you do if the amount of menstrual blood becomes less at the age of 38? The editor will explain it to you below.

What should I do if my menstrual flow decreases after 38 years of age?

1. The menstrual flow is small, but the ovaries are normal. This situation does not affect pregnancy. The menstrual volume of a healthy woman is about 20-80ml. If the menstrual volume of a woman is small and within the normal range, and her ovulation function and secretion of female hormones are within the normal range, then the woman can become pregnant.

2. If a woman's menstrual flow is too little, it may be due to systemic active diseases such as tuberculosis, malnutrition, anemia, etc., or mental factors such as anxiety, depression, fear, fatigue, environmental changes, etc. This condition can be adjusted through psychological counseling or medication and diet therapy. As long as the condition improves, the woman can become pregnant.

3. If scanty menstruation or even amenorrhea is caused by low endocrine function, tumors, uterine dysplasia and other diseases, the probability of infertility will greatly increase. Women need to find out the cause of endocrine imbalance and actively seek treatment.

4. Low estrogen levels in the body can cause the endometrium to not be thick enough, resulting in less bleeding during menstruation and affecting pregnancy. However, if it is a girl who has just had her first menstruation, the secretion of estrogen in her body has not yet reached a balanced and stable state, so the menstrual volume is generally small, which is normal and will not affect pregnancy.

5. Malnutrition may cause scanty menstruation or even amenorrhea, which may affect pregnancy. This situation not only causes incomplete development of the uterus and other urinary systems, posing a hidden danger to future infertility, but also leads to a decrease in the body's immune function, contributing to the progression of the disease.
