Cyclic Otg is more important but flow reduced may be due to any change in hormonal pattern.please get an ultrasound done to see the endometrial thickness.

Good evening...
No need to worry about it .. it is normal to have scanty periods if everything is fine.
-If ur over weight , reduce a minimum of 3-4 kgs and hormonal balances , ur flow becomes normal.
( eat healthy, do exercise daily for half n hour morning and evening).
Next Steps
Get Thyroid test , CBP( Anemia can also can have reduced blood flow), Usg pelvis scan . If u have scanty periods in further cycles too get these investigations and see . If all the reports are normal no need to worry at all.
Health Tips
Stay stress free. Which plays a crucial role in hormonal imbalance. Stay safe .
