In this paper, we prove the existence of positive solutions with prescribed
$ L^{2} $
-norm to the following Choquard equation:
$ \begin{equation*} -\Delta u-\lambda u = (I_{\alpha}*F(u))f(u), \ \ \ \ x\in \mathbb{R}^3, \end{equation*} $
where
$ \lambda\in \mathbb{R}, \alpha\in (0,3) $
 and
$ I_{\alpha}: \mathbb{R}^3\rightarrow \mathbb{R} $
 is the Riesz potential. Under the weaker conditions, by using a minimax procedure and some new analytical techniques, we show that for any
$ c>0 $
, the above equation possesses at least a couple of weak solution
$ (\bar{u}_c, \bar{ \lambda}_c)\in \mathcal{S}_{c}\times \mathbb{R}^- $
 such that
$ \|\bar{u}_c\|_{2}^{2} = c $
.
Keywords: Choquard equations, normalized solution, variational method, minimax method, weak solutions.
