These symptoms can be indicative of underlying health issues that may require medical attention. He encouraged women to be proactive about their menstrual health and to consult with healthcare providers if they notice any significant changes.
The conversation shed light on the importance of understanding one’s body and recognizing what is normal versus abnormal.
