A member asked:
Why is my period flow reducing drastically?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Progesterone: Often when women have been exposed to Progesterone or have an imbalance of hormones, excess Progesterone can cause reduction of flow. Problems with thyroid or weight can also cause (thin/heavy). Rarely ovarian problems cause decreased hormone production. Keep a menstrual diary and see a doctor for evalution.
