A member asked:
What causes a period to be very light compared to normal period flow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two things: There are two things that make for a light period. One, a minimal endometrium growth due to hormonal contraceptives or other hormonal reasons. The second reason is pregnancy in which the light flow is due to bleeding from that source.
