Weight loss and your period

I did post something similar in the menstruation subreddit if that's okay. I just wanted some more input.

So my period has significantly gotten shorter and lighter once I began my weight loss journey. FYI, I'm 25 years old, 5'1, and went from 230lbs to 173lbs very slowly over the course of 2 years with a lot of plateaus. I've been obese my entire life pretty much, but I have made a major change in my diet and I'm significantly more active. I'm concern because it feels too light and too short. From 4-5 days to 3 days to 2.5 days. I've track my cycle for over a year now and my cycle is 24-27 days and my symptoms are consistent.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this as well? Did your period go back to its usual flow once you're in maintenance? Could this be some sort of medical issue such as PCOS?

And yes I will see a medical professional once I'm covered :(
