What is the normal color of menstruation?

Menstruation is a normal phenomenon for every woman. Whether its health is directly related to whether the female reproductive function is perfect or not is due to one's own physical condition. The length of the menstrual cycle is different, and there are many complicated reasons for it, including genetic problems, endocrine problems, etc. What should the normal menstrual period of most women be like? Let's share our experience below.

Menstrual period: The time of vaginal bleeding is called the menstrual period. Most people's menstrual period lasts 3-5 days, but as little as 1-2 days and as much as 7-8 days is also considered normal.

Menstrual cycle: From the first day of menarche to the first day of the next menarche is called a menstrual cycle. The vast majority of people have a cycle between 28-35 days, but there are a small number of people with a cycle as short as 20 days or nearly 45 days. Within the above range, as long as the menstrual period is regular, it is normal.

Characteristics of menstrual blood: Menstrual blood is not coagulated and is dark red in color. In addition to blood, menstrual blood also contains fragments of the uterine wall, cervical mucus, and squamous epithelial cells in the vagina.

Menstrual blood volume: The normal menstrual blood volume is 20-120ml, mostly 50ml, with the highest volume on the second or third day of menarche, and then gradually decreases. Normal menstruation is the main manifestation of normal development and perfect function of female internal reproductive organs.

Menstrual period reactions: Most women have no obvious symptoms during their menstrual period, but a small number of them may experience breast swelling, headache, insomnia, panic, lower abdominal swelling and pain, and emotional irritability.

How to take care of bright red and heavy menstrual period

1. Avoid cold foods and catching cold. Because of the continuous excessive blood loss during menstruation, women's resistance is also reduced to a certain extent. If you eat cold food or catch a cold at this time, it will cause blood vessels to constrict and menstrual flow to increase; secondly, it is easy to cause uterine cold, causing menstrual pain, fever, cold and other symptoms.

2. Adjust the application of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. Mental stress and anxiety can easily lead to liver depression and qi stagnation, which in turn affects physical and mental health. Chinese herbal medicine has a mild effect. It can soothe the liver and regulate qi while also appropriately replenishing qi and nourishing blood.
