What is the reason for scanty menstruation?

The reasons for scanty menstruation may be related to physiological factors, bad habits, mental factors, pathological factors, anemia, intrauterine adhesions, polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian dysfunction and other reasons.

1. Physiological factors

1. Bad habits: If you often stay up late or diet excessively, it may cause endocrine disorders in women, which in turn affects menstrual regularity and causes less menstrual flow.

2. Mental factors: such as excessive mental stimulation, tension and psychological trauma, coupled with excessive stress in daily life, can cause endocrine disorders and symptoms of scanty menstruation.

2. Pathological factors

1. Anemia: If a woman has anemia, the decrease in red blood cells in the peripheral blood may further affect the amount of menstruation, resulting in less menstrual flow.

2. Intrauterine adhesion: For example, bacterial infection and improper intrauterine surgical operation will increase the risk of intrauterine adhesion, which will in turn affect the discharge of menstrual volume and result in less menstrual volume.

3. Polycystic ovary syndrome: If a woman has endocrine diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome, the hormone levels in the body may be affected, resulting in scanty menstruation, and in severe cases, amenorrhea.

4. Ovarian dysfunction: As some women age, their ovarian function may gradually decline, which may affect their menstruation and cause a decrease in menstrual flow or amenorrhea.

If a woman has a persistently scanty menstrual flow and other discomfort symptoms, she should go to a regular hospital as soon as possible and cooperate with the doctor for examination and treatment.
