Windows 10: Problems while recording audio using Win 10 in built microphone.

I have been trying to record audio through the inbuilt microphone for a video. However, the recorded audio volume decreases and come back to normal after every intervals. I have realtek audio installed. Using audacity and obs studio, both have the same problem with the audio. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
