OBGYN,  's  Response
hi,
menstrual irregularities can happen due to many reasons,
scanty flow during periods is called hypomenorrhea, this can be due to anemia, weight changes, hormonal disorders etc,
urinary frequency and pain during urination can be seen in case of urinary tract infection,
so if your symptoms persist you better consult gynecologist and undergo physical examination, urine analysis and ultrasound to detect the possible causes and treatment can be taken accordingly.
take care.
