Have you considered these factors for the reasons of scanty menstrual flow?

Many young women do not take light menstrual flow seriously. Let us make it clear here that light menstrual flow means that there is a problem with your health. The reasons behind this are quite complicated and may be due to endocrine disorders or ovarian dysfunction.

1. Ovarian dysfunction

As women age, their ovarian function declines, which directly leads to a decrease in menstrual volume. This is a normal physiological phenomenon.

2. Uterine hypoplasia

Menstruation is essentially the shedding of the endometrium, which causes bleeding and changes with the ovarian cycle. If the uterus is underdeveloped, that is, the uterus is still smaller than normal after puberty, then the small uterus will inevitably lead to less endometrial shedding, and the direct manifestation is less menstrual volume. Secondly, damage to the endometrium caused by endometrial lesions, artificial abortion, curettage, etc. can also lead to a decrease in menstrual volume.

3. Endocrine disorders

The most common cause of scanty menstruation is endocrine disorders, which is caused by low estrogen secretion levels in the body. Low estrogen levels make it difficult for women's endometrium to proliferate. The weak endometrium will inevitably fail to produce the amount required for normal menstruation, resulting in less menstrual flow. There are many reasons that lead to hormone secretion, such as excessive dieting in obese people, irregular lifestyles of workaholics, and related reproductive system diseases. In this case, you can go to the hospital for an endocrine hormone test to rule out other possible diseases.

4. Changes in the spiritual environment

Sudden or long-term mental states such as high mental tension and increased stress may also lead to estrogen secretion disorders in women, manifested as low menstrual volume. Women should combine work and rest, relax and maintain a healthy mentality.

Small menstrual flow is an unhealthy sign and is harmful to the body. So how to regulate scanty menstruation? The following content will teach you how to regulate scanty menstruation.

How to regulate scanty menstruation?

1. Get enough sleep

"Women are based on blood and their liver is their innate nature." Nourishing liver and blood is vital for women.
