Abnormal menstrual color, beware of gynecological inflammation

We must always pay attention to changes in our bodies. Women can sometimes observe changes in their bodies from changes in menstruation.

Nowadays, female infertility is a very common phenomenon. Many people may not pay attention to their bodies at ordinary times, which leads to finding out that they are infertile when they want to have children. But at that time, it is really anxious!

Dark menstrual color indicates gynecological inflammation

Normal menstrual blood is generally dark red. Of course, sometimes when the menstrual flow is heavier, it may also be bright red. This is normal and don't worry. It is normal to have small blood clots occasionally flowing out during menstruation! However, if the menstrual blood is dark in color, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it is often due to qi deficiency, cold or heat. This is because the menstrual blood has been stagnant in the female's uterus for a long time. Irregular menstrual cycles and too little menstrual blood can cause women's menstrual blood to be dark in color.

However, there is another situation that cannot be ignored; the darkening of menstrual blood may also be related to inflammation. If a woman suffers from gynecological inflammation such as vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, etc., it is very likely that menstrual congestion cannot be discharged normally. You must know that some pelvic inflammatory diseases are caused by salpingitis, and fallopian tube inflammation is the most common cause of female infertility. Therefore, women must pay great attention to the darkening of their menstrual blood.

Of course, if dark menstrual blood appears, we should not be overly nervous. Excessive stress in daily life and being in a high mental state will cause menstrual blood to accumulate in the uterus, which will also cause dark menstrual blood. In addition, there are several bad habits that cause women to have dark menstrual blood accumulation. If you have too many miscarriages, too many sexual partners, irregular sex life, etc., it will lead to irregular menstrual cycles. In addition, women must pay attention to the maintenance of their bodies during menstruation, avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, ensure adequate sleep, avoid overwork, and avoid having sex during menstruation. If these situations are avoided and the menstruation is still black, female friends must pay attention to it, because many infertile women start with gynecological inflammation.

Issues that women with dark menstrual blood should pay attention to on a daily basis:

1. Women should eat less spicy, raw, cold and other irritating foods, and drink more boiled water. For people with hot blood, it is advisable to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits before menstruation. People with qi and blood deficiency need to increase nutrition, such as milk, eggs, soy milk, chicken, mutton, etc., and avoid eating raw and cold fruits and vegetables.

2. Women should pay attention to genital care and hygiene on a daily basis. Do not have sex during menstruation, keep warm, avoid cold stimulation, and do not overwork. People with heavy menstrual bleeding should avoid eating brown sugar. Do not take cold showers during menstruation and avoid tub baths.

3. Try to wear soft, cotton underwear to maintain good breathability. Wash and change underwear frequently, and dry them in the sun to prevent the growth of bacteria.

4. Avoid negative emotions, mental stimulation and mood swings. It is normal to experience lower abdominal distension, back pain, breast tenderness, mild diarrhea, fatigue, drowsiness, and emotional instability during menstruation.
