Sticky menstrual blood

Menstruation is the beginning of a woman's body's perfection. Normally, the menstrual period is bright red without the formation of blood clots. However, the menstrual period will be affected by many different factors, which will cause changes in menstruation. Over time, women will get used to it. When real problems arise, we choose to ignore them and miss the best stage of treatment. Many women sometimes experience dark menstrual blood and blood clots, which is usually caused by excessive fatigue or mental influence. But if this happens often, don't ignore it, it may be a problem with your body.

The menstrual blood is black and there are sticky blood clots. What is the reason?

Cold uterus

In summer, women tend to eat hot and cold food, eat cold food, and often drink cold food, which will cause cold air to enter the uterus. Moreover, in hot weather, women basically stay in the air-conditioned room all the time, and the temperature is always very low, which can also cause uterine cold. Therefore, many women's menstrual pain will be aggravated in summer, and gray-black menstrual blood and blood clots will continue to appear. In addition, as women age, the uterine wall becomes softer, uterine coldness becomes more serious, and dark menstrual blood often occurs.

Ectopic pregnancy

If a woman has an ectopic pregnancy, her blood may turn black and blood clots may appear. But this is not menstruation. It is an ectopic pregnancy that causes the gestational sac to rupture, resulting in bleeding, black blood, and the appearance of blood clots. This condition should be taken seriously. As the child grows up, the impact on the pregnant mother will become greater, and severe abdominal pain will continue to occur, affecting work and life.

Gynecological inflammation

The menstrual period is a weather chart of a woman's physical and mental health. When the color of menstrual blood changes, it is most likely a gynecological disease. Gynecological diseases can cause obstructive menstrual discharge from the uterus, which can lead to menstrual accumulation, blood clots, and black menstrual blood. For example, gynecological inflammations such as salpingitis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, etc., all have such conditions. You should pay attention to whether there are other symptoms in your daily life, and deal with them in time and seek medical attention immediately.

Liver depression and qi stagnation

Liver depression and qi stagnation are also the reasons why women’s menstrual blood turns black. Women are more meticulous and sensitive, and their mood swings are usually larger. If they are upset and anxious, they are very likely to suffer from liver depression and qi stagnation, which will affect the blood in the uterus and cause menstruation to stagnate. When blood accumulates in the body, it will turn black and coagulate into blood clots. In this case, women can soak their feet before going to bed every day, and then do a foot massage to dredge liver fire, relieve blood stasis, and improve the dark color of menstrual blood.

How to prevent menstrual blood from turning black and causing blood clots?

Be sure to keep warm: After reading this, we understand that the dark menstrual blood in women is related to the accumulation of dampness and coldness in the body, so the usual cold prevention and warming work must be done well. In summer, you should eat less cold food and cold drinks, and be careful when eating hot and humid foods. Melons and other cold fruits should be eaten less. Even if it is not your menstrual period, you still need to pay attention to keeping yourself warm. You must keep your abdomen and waist warm, which is good for the health of your uterus and will also ensure normal menstruation.

If your menstrual discharge becomes dark and contains sticky blood clots, this is not a good sign and you should pay attention to maintaining your health in a timely manner, especially if you also experience lower back pain, abdominal pain, abnormal leucorrhea, etc., be aware that you may have a gynecological disease.
