The main reasons for scanty menstruation

Menstruation is the defense of women's reproductive health, and normal menstruation is the basis of women's reproductive health. Irregular menstruation and menstrual symptoms both affect women's reproductive health. These irregular menstruation and menstrual symptoms, if not properly treated, can easily lead to gynecological diseases, even infertility or gynecological cancer. There are 10 common menstrual symptoms, and scanty menstruation is one of them.

What is the key reason for light menstrual flow?

1. Excessive dieting to lose weight. For various reasons, many women have strict requirements on their body shape. Women's menstruation is closely related to weight and body fat rate. In particular, women who have menstrual problems should stop losing weight, improve nutrition, and recover as soon as possible.

2. Excessive work and rest schedule leads to endocrine imbalance. Fast-paced life, high-intensity work, and those uncomfortable days every month are probably harmful to many women. If they do not pay attention to maintaining a stable work and rest schedule and relieve stress at this time, it is likely to lead to oligomenorrhea.

3. Often angry and depressed. Female friends should never hold back when they feel depressed. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, depression can easily lead to liver qi stagnation, which can lead to less menstrual flow. In addition, excessive mental stimulation, anxiety and psychological trauma can also lead to oligomenorrhea.

4. Abortion surgery. After an abortion, the uterus and ovaries can generally resume ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation will occur around January. However, a very small number of women experience prolonged menstruation, irregular cycle duration, and amenorrhea after abortion, which usually recover after 2-3 months.

5. Ovarian decline. The function of the ovaries directly affects women's menstrual period. In the late period, the menstrual flow is small. Most modern scientists believe that it is related to poor uterine development or anovulation. Therefore, promoting ovulation and strengthening the ovaries are the key steps in treating oligomenorrhea.

6. Chest diseases. Many women experience premenstrual breast pain but little menstrual flow. This should never be ignored. Symptoms such as breast pain may be caused by liver qi stagnation, and require soothing the liver and regulating qi, connecting the blood vessels, and thus achieving the overall effect of regulating menstruation.
