[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First

• Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
• If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
• It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[Menstrual Clots] If You’re Experiencing More Menstrual Clots and Severe Menstrual Cramps, Check This Out

• Ulsan When consulting about clots in menstrual blood, the first thing to check is not just the size of the clots.
• We need to assess whether your menstrual flow has suddenly increased, if your period has become longer, if you are experiencing severe menstrual cramps, symptoms of anemia, or abnormal bleeding, and whether there are any conditions to check for, such as uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, or endometriosis.
• When people see clots in their menstrual blood, many ask, “Is the blood coming out because it’s clotted?”
