I am 21 months PP. Ever since my regular periods started, my flow is very very less (compared to before pregnancy) however, it's always on time and lasts 3 - 4 days.
I also have extreme fatigue and headache on these days.

The menstrual flow that lasts for 3 to 4 days is normal.
Check if you are dehydrated , drink plenty fluids to prevent headache like juices and buttermilk
