If there are any problems with menstruation, it will inevitably have a great impact on women's health. After all, menstruation comes every month. If the amount is small or delayed, it indicates that there is a problem with women's body regulation. Timely treatment is the best choice. So, what should be checked for a small amount of menstruation?
There are many tests that need to be done for a low menstrual flow. Firstly, a blood routine test is required, and hormone tests are also needed to determine if there are any abnormalities in pituitary hormone secretion. Moreover, temperature monitoring is necessary, and finally, reproductive system issues such as abnormal ovarian and corpus luteum function, or abnormal bacterial infections in the uterus and vagina need to be checked.
The doctor will also inquire about the patient's medical history, especially their previous menstrual symptoms, when their menstrual flow began to decrease, and whether they have experienced abortion or childbirth. And the use of some chronic medications also needs to be investigated, as they can affect menstrual secretion. Ultrasound examination and subsequent six hormone tests are unavoidable, and to confirm the final condition, these situations need to be understood.
Young women nowadays are prone to menstrual disorders, mostly caused by improper diet or sleep habits. Not only do they have less exercise time, but they also work overtime for a long time. Over time, their bodies cannot withstand high pressure, which can manifest as endocrine disorders and adverse reactions. Therefore, women with this condition must pay attention.
