What is the reason for less menstruation?

As long as you notice that your menstrual period has become less frequent, you should closely observe changes in your body, because this symptom will inevitably cause various problems once it is triggered. The reason for this situation is due to psychological pressure or endocrine disorders. No matter what the cause is, you should seek treatment as soon as possible to achieve the specific effect of treating the disease with the right medicine.

1. Excessive dieting to lose weight

For various reasons, many women have very high demands on their body shape. Women's menstruation is closely related to their weight and body fat content. In particular, women who have menstrual problems should stop losing weight, strengthen their nutrition, and restore their health.

2. Excessive work and rest can lead to endocrine disorders

With a fast-paced life and high-intensity work, many women would probably go crazy if they encounter those uncomfortable days every month. If they do not pay attention to maintaining a good work and rest routine and relaxing at this time, it is likely to cause scanty menstruation.

3. Often sulking and depressed

Female friends should never hold back when they feel wronged. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, holding back can easily cause liver depression and qi stagnation, thereby reducing menstrual flow. In addition, excessive mental stimulation, tension and psychological trauma can also cause oligomenorrhea.

4. Artificial abortion

After an artificial abortion, the ovaries can generally resume ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation will occur in about 1 month. However, a small number of women experience prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea after artificial abortion, which usually return to normal after 2-3 months.

5. Ovarian dysfunction

The function of the ovaries directly affects women's menstruation. In the late menstrual period, the menstrual volume is small. Most modern medicine believes that this is related to poor follicular development or anovulation. Therefore, promoting ovulation and strengthening ovarian function are the main links in treating oligomenorrhea.

6. Chest lesions

Many women experience premenstrual breast pain but little menstrual flow. Do not take this lightly, because symptoms such as breast pain may be caused by liver depression and qi stagnation. You need to soothe the liver and regulate qi, and unblock the blood vessels to achieve the overall menstruation regulation effect.

If the menstrual cycle is basically normal but the menstrual flow is significantly reduced, or even stops with a few drops, or the menstrual period is shortened to less than two days and the menstrual flow is also small, it is called oligomenorrhea, also known as scanty menstruation. It is generally believed that menstrual volume less than 30 ml is considered oligomenorrhea. This disease is often a precursor to amenorrhea. Oligomenorrhea may be associated with cycle abnormalities, such as scanty menstrual flow or scanty menstrual flow at the end of the menstrual cycle.
