Dr. Neeraj Agarwal
I’m an MBBS graduate with a deep commitment to providing meaningful, patient-first care. My clinical training has given me a solid understanding of how to assess and manage a wide variety of health conditions—both common and complex. But beyond just clinical skills, I’ve always believed that the heart of medicine lies in listening. That’s what I try to bring into every consultation: not just treatment, but genuine attention to the person in front of me. I have gained experience across general medicine, paediatrics, emergency care and preventive health. I have treated patients of different age groups and backgrounds, which has helped shaped a more flexible, to diagnosis and management. Whether someone comes with a new symptom or a routine check-up, I aim to deliver evidence-based treatment, explained clearly and tailored to the lifestyle. I’m especially focused on making care accessible and comfortable. Too often, patients feel rushed or confused when they leave a doctor’s office—I try to do the opposite. Taking time to explain options, risks, or even just what’s going on in simple terms is something I take seriously. Communication, I think, is just as important as any prescription. I actively stay updated with current medical guidelines and research, and I’ve been exploring areas of holistic care and preventive medicine too. The more we can do to catch problems early—or better yet, avoid them—the better the outcome for everyone. I’ve seen how small lifestyle changes, when supported properly, can make a big difference to long-term health. There’s still a lot to learn, of course. I think every good doctor keeps learning. But every patient I see teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons forward—with honesty, empathy, and the intent to keep improving.

Having a lighter menstrual flow than usual can be influenced by various factors and isn’t uncommon. For someone who’s 23, things like stress, changes in diet, significant weight loss or gain, and even intense exercise routines can impact periods. Hormonal imbalances, such as those in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), can also be a cause, along with thyroid issues. Birth control methods—especially hormonal ones like pills, patches, or IUDs—often affect the heaviness of menstrual bleeding. If you’ve recently changed or started a new contraceptive, this could be a reason for lighter flow.

To manage or better understand the cause, consider keeping a menstrual diary tracking changes in your cycle, flow length and any associated symptoms. This might help identify patterns or triggers over time. Nutritional imbalances, like low iron or vitamin deficiencies, could be affecting your period too, so it might be worthwhile to look into your diet or any dietary restrictions. If this change persists over several months, or if you experience any other concerning symptoms like unexpected pain or irregularity (periods more than 35 days apart), seeing a healthcare provider is a good idea. They may do a physical exam, blood tests, or potentially an ultrasound to evaluate your reproductive health more thoroughly.

In the meantime, focusing on stress reduction techniques such as yoga, mindfulness, or other comforting activities might help, alongside maintaining a balanced diet and a regular, manageable exercise routine. The main goal is to determine if this is a temporary shift or if it points to something needing medical intervention. A tailored approach, taking into account your lifestyle and health history, is key.
