Is it normal to have reddish brown blood clots during ovulation?

As women face increasing social and family pressures, they have to work and take care of children. The probability of infertility among women is gradually increasing. Eggs are the source of life, but if there is a problem with a woman's ovulation period, it will directly affect her fertility. So is it normal to have reddish-brown blood clots during ovulation? The answer to this question depends on the specific situation of the woman. Below we will solve the problem of reddish-brown blood clots during ovulation.

During the middle of the menstrual cycle, that is, during ovulation, due to a brief drop in estrogen levels, the endometrium loses hormonal support and some endometrium sheds, causing regular vaginal bleeding, which is called ovulation bleeding. Traditional Chinese medicine calls it "intermenstrual bleeding."

After the mature follicle ruptures and ovulates, the estrogen level drops sharply and significantly, which cannot maintain the growth of the endometrium, causing local rupture and shedding of the endometrial surface, resulting in breakthrough bleeding. With the formation of the corpus luteum of the ovary, sufficient amounts of estrogen and progesterone are secreted to quickly repair the ruptured endometrial surface and stop the bleeding. Or it is possible that during ovulation, the mature follicles secrete more estrogen, causing congestion of the endometrium and leakage of red blood cells. It is also possible that when the eggs are captured in the fimbria of the fallopian tube, the blood-containing follicular fluid is sent to the uterine cavity through the retrograde peristalsis of the fallopian tube and then flows out of the cervix through the vagina.

Of course, there are also many possibilities that it is due to the imbalance of sex hormone secretion, which causes large fluctuations in hormone levels during ovulation and causes obvious bleeding. Chronic inflammation of the endometrium or inflammatory thickening of the ovarian surface causes significant endometrial congestion during ovulation, and bleeding is not easy to stop on its own, or the inflammatory thickened follicle surface ruptures and bleeds more than normal, and flows back into the uterine cavity with the peristalsis of the fallopian tube and is discharged from the body through the vagina.

In fact, ovulation bleeding is a phenomenon that every female friend may experience. Generally, the amount of bleeding is very small and cannot be observed with the naked eye, but some people will have obvious bleeding symptoms, and the severity cannot be generalized. But in fact, the main reason for ovulation bleeding is that after the mature follicle ruptures and ovulates, the estrogen level drops sharply, which cannot maintain the growth of the endometrium, causing local ulceration and shedding of the surface layer of the endometrium, resulting in breakthrough bleeding in small amounts.

Ovulation symptoms

1. Decreased appetite: Studies have shown that women eat the least during their ovulation period. Experts point out that this is the result of human natural instincts that have been preserved to this day - female animals during ovulation will focus more on finding the opposite sex for mating rather than finding food.

2. Being energetic: This is also a natural instinct inherited from humans. In order to successfully attract the opposite sex, women during ovulation will become energetic and love to express themselves.

3. Increased sexual desire: Generally speaking, women’s sexual desire is particularly strong during their ovulation period, which is a reflection of the fact that women’s body signals that they want to get pregnant have reached their highest level.

4. Decreased resistance: During ovulation, women’s vaginal mucus becomes thinner, allowing sperm to pass more easily and increasing the chances of successful conception. At the same time, women’s nasal mucus also decreases, which increases the chances of bacteria invading the human circulatory system.

The above is the answer to the question of whether it is normal to have reddish-brown blood clots during ovulation. Whether the ovulation period is normal is closely related to the female's fertility. Many infertile women have problems with ovulation. Therefore, once a woman has reddish-brown blood clots during ovulation, she should go to the hospital for examination in time, and then receive timely treatment to prevent the condition from further deteriorating.
