My period came out with a lot of fluid

Many women experience a lot of discharge from their vagina during menstruation. The discharge feels slippery and is sometimes bright red, sometimes purple, and sometimes black. Some people are very scared about this and always feel that they have some serious gynecological disease. In fact, these are blood clots, and the causes of the blood clots need to be identified in time to avoid delaying the disease. So how are these blood clots formed during menstruation?

1. Reasons

1. It is not abnormal to have blood clots during menstruation. It is the normal shedding of the endometrium. Most of them are very small fragments and are not easy to see. If the whole piece is peeled off, it can be seen.

2. It is normal for qi stagnation and blood stasis to occur once or twice during a menstrual period due to cold uterus in women. Don’t worry too much. If it is accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, it is recommended to take Chinese medicine for conditioning.

2. What is uterine cold

Gonghan, as the name suggests, is the abbreviation of "cold uterus". "Gong" can refer to the "uterus" in Western medicine, or the "baogong" in traditional Chinese medicine. The latter refers more to the female internal reproductive organs (uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries) and their functions. Therefore, understanding the "palace" here as "baogong" will help to better understand the meaning of uterine cold and the disease it refers to. "Cold" is a common cause of disease in traditional Chinese medicine. Excessive wading in water, being attacked by the cold evil of nature, and eating cold food can all cause external "cold" to invade the human body and stagnate in the meridians, internal organs, and of course the uterus. This kind of cold is mostly "real cold". On the other hand, "cold" in traditional Chinese medicine also refers to the accumulation of pathological cold products in the meridians and internal organs of the human body. This pathological cold product can be caused by the deficiency of spleen and kidney yang in the human body, which is unable to normally transport water and moisture, causing the cold air to stagnate in the meridians and internal organs of the human body. This kind of cold is mostly "deficiency cold".
