What causes menstrual blood clots?

During a woman's menstrual period, the color of her menstrual blood is generally dark red. It is uncoagulated blood with a small amount of blood clots. This is the shedding of vaginal cervical mucus and epithelial cells and is a relatively normal physiological phenomenon. However, if there are too many blood clots, you should be alert, as it may be caused by uterine fibroids or endocrine disorders.

1. Uterine fibroids:

If a woman has a lot of blood clots during menstruation and severe dysmenorrhea, it is likely caused by uterine fibroids.

2. Endocrine disorders:

When women have menstrual blood clots, it is generally related to the shedding of the endometrium, but if there is continuous heavy menstrual flow and many blood clots, it may be caused by endocrine disorders.
