What causes black menstrual bleeding?

Monthly menstruation is a normal physiological reaction for women. The date of each month and the amount of bleeding are generally consistent. Once this balance is broken, it means that there is something wrong with the reproductive system and we must pay attention to it. Recently, some female friends have asked, what is the reason for the black color in menstrual blood? Now, the editor and you will consult a gynecologist to find out what is going on.

In fact, there are many complications during menstruation, which may include abdominal pain, vomiting, drowsiness, and dark brown blood. In the case of dark brown menstruation, the general reason is that the qi and blood remain in the uterus for too long, but it may also be caused by too much cold in the female body, so women should not worry too much about the appearance of dark brown menstruation.

Dark menstrual blood generally does not indicate any problem. It may be caused by menstrual blood staying in the uterine cavity for a long time or by gynecological inflammation. Because menstrual blood is mixed with sloughed endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and vaginal epithelial cells, it looks dark in color and is not as bright red as the blood flowing out of broken skin. There are also some small thin fragments mixed in the menstrual blood.

Menstrual blood is relatively small, and the longer it stays in the uterus and vagina, the darker its color becomes. Long-term scanty menstruation may cause amenorrhea or infertility. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for examination in time, identify the cause and actively receive symptomatic treatment to avoid affecting your health. During the menstrual period, you should keep your emotions stable and in a good mood, and not let the discomfort of the menstrual period cause you to get upset, irritated, or have other emotional fluctuations. During the menstrual period, you should keep warm, avoid cold stimulation, pay attention to nutrition, drink plenty of water, and avoid eating sour, spicy, and other irritating foods to reduce pelvic congestion and keep bowel movements smooth. You should also pay attention to rest during the menstrual period and ensure adequate sleep.

Dark menstrual blood is caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, which occurs when menstrual blood accumulates in the uterus for a long time. It is irregular menstruation and can be treated by seeking treatment from a Chinese medicine practitioner who uses Chinese medicine to regulate and treat the condition, which is suitable for replenishing both qi and blood. You can use Buzhong Yiqi Pills, Shiquan Dabu Pills, etc. Darker menstrual color may be related to inflammation. In fact, the menstrual blood that comes every month is the blood flowing in the blood vessels in the body, and it should be bright red. However, because menstrual blood is mixed with sloughed endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and vaginal epithelial cells, it looks dark in color and is not as bright red as the blood flowing out of broken skin. There are also some small thin fragments mixed in the menstrual blood. In particular, some people have less menstrual blood, and the color becomes darker as the blood stays in the uterus and vagina for a longer time. Therefore, while paying attention to the color of menstrual blood, you should also pay attention to the menstrual cycle, duration of menstruation, amount of menstruation, and whether you have any discomfort.

After reading the above introduction, I believe female friends will have a more comprehensive understanding of menstrual blood. Once the above phenomena occur, we must not panic, because with the current level of technology, it can be completely cured. What we need to do is to pay attention to our menstrual blood and go to the hospital for treatment immediately if we find any abnormal phenomenon.
