It’s terrifying when you think about it! This woman's body fluid turned black

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that menstrual blood reflects a woman’s physical health. The dark color of a woman’s menstrual blood is actually a signal of certain diseases. So why does the color of a woman’s menstrual blood turn dark?

Qi and blood deficiency

If a woman has insufficient Qi and blood, she will usually experience dark menstrual blood, increased or decreased menstrual blood volume, prolonged menstrual period, etc. Insufficient Qi and blood will cause abdominal pain and fatigue. It is recommended that women with this condition choose a diet that replenishes both Qi and blood for conditioning.

Blood heat

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that internal heat produces blood. If a woman's menstruation is black, it may be caused by blood heat. Blood heat is usually accompanied by symptoms such as red face and dry mouth, short yellow urine, prolonged menstruation, and hot hands and feet. It is recommended that such women adopt health care methods of clearing heat and detoxifying, nourishing yin and tonifying the kidney, regulating menstruation and stopping bleeding.

Dysmenorrhea

If the blood circulation is unobstructed, there will be no pain; if it is obstructed, there will be pain. Dysmenorrhea is usually caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, accompanied by menstrual disorders, pain in the lower abdomen, breasts, chest and ribs, etc. These symptoms may also cause discomfort. Women of this type are advised to eat more dietary recipes that promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, regulate qi and relieve pain.

In addition, if women suffer from long-term constipation, it is easy to cause irregular menstruation. This is because excessive feces in the rectum will force the uterus to move forward and tilt backward, making it easy to have problems such as irregular menstruation and back pain during menstruation.

Generally speaking, if a woman's menstrual blood is dark, it is recommended to use the above-mentioned methods to regulate it. If there is no improvement after regulation, it is recommended to go to a gynecological hospital to check whether there are certain lesions.

Furthermore, women must pay special attention to their health care during menstruation to avoid problems such as irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and dark menstrual blood.

1. You must keep a happy spirit at ordinary times, be careful to avoid negative emotional stimulation and mood swings, and don't get angry.
