Your scanty periods this past month could be from stress, a recent weight change, or a hormonal shift like early PCOS.
Next Steps
If it continues for another cycle or two, ask your gynaecologist for a thyroid panel, hormone tests, and a pelvic ultrasound.
Health Tips
Please rule out pregnancy first if there's any chance, since that can sometimes show up as a lighter period.
