Will scanty menstruation affect fertility?

Women's menstruation is often closely related to normal fertility, and menstruation is also affected by neuroendocrine. However, there are many reasons for scanty menstruation, and it is sometimes related to environmental factors. So will scanty menstruation affect fertility?

1. The menstrual volume is small, but the ovarian function is normal and does not affect pregnancy. The normal range of a woman's menstrual volume is relatively large, approximately between 80 and 100 ml. Some women have less menstrual flow, which is within the normal range, but their ovarian ovulation function and female hormone secretion function are both within the normal range. Therefore, these women are still fertile.

2. If the menstrual volume is small and is not caused by the reproductive system or endocrine system, there is a certain probability of fertility. If a woman's menstrual flow is too small, it may be due to systemic wasting diseases such as tuberculosis, malnutrition, anemia, or mental factors such as tension, depression, fear, fatigue, environmental changes, etc. A certain proportion of women whose menstrual flow is too small due to these factors can still have children.

3. Small menstrual volume caused by endocrine and other factors may affect pregnancy. If the menstrual flow is too small or even amenorrhea is caused by diseases such as endocrine dysfunction, tumors, and uterine hypoplasia, the chance of infertility will greatly increase. However, if it is only a temporary endocrine disorder, such as emotional tension, environmental changes, increased psychological pressure, or sudden stimulation, as long as the above temporary factors disappear, menstruation can return to normal. Therefore, this situation does not affect pregnancy.

4. Low estrogen levels in the body can cause the endometrium to not grow thick enough and result in less bleeding during menstruation, which can affect conception. However, for girls who have just started their menarche, the secretion of estrogen in their bodies has not yet reached a balanced and stable state, so the amount of menstrual blood is generally not much. This is normal and will not affect conception.

5. Malnutrition may cause too little menstrual blood flow or even amenorrhea, which may affect pregnancy. This situation not only causes poor development of the reproductive system such as the uterus, laying the hidden danger of future infertility, but also causes a decline in the body's immune function, creating conditions for the invasion of diseases.
